  • The New Law

    I speak not now 'midst awesome clouds
    Nor give my law on stones,
    For now I've come to be your Child
    In flesh and blood and bones.

    From the highest throne of majesty
    Where Powers and Thrones adore me
    I leapt to the pure immaculate bosom
    And the virginal womb that bore me.

    Eager to run your course of life
    To become the Son of Man,
    To regain for the world the pristine grace
    Of My Father's original plan.

    To bear your burden and share your grief
    To join you in your strife
    To bring to mortal man the gift
    Of everlasting life.

    I promised to be to the end of time
    With you and ever abide,
    Hiding myself in the tabernacles
    Of my faithful spotless Bride.

    And there I wait in the white of bread.
    I wait in the red of wine,
    I wait for loving hearts to come
    To give them all of mine.

    Not eye for eye, nor tooth for tooth
    The law that was of old,
    But heart for heart is my new law
    Which prophets have foretold.

    Brother Francis, M.I.C.M, Divine Alchemy
    "The Blessed Eucharist means nothing to a man who thinks other people can get along without It. The Blessed Eucharist means nothing to a communicant who thinks he needs It but someone else does not. The Blessed Eucharist means nothing to a communicant who offers others any charity ahead of this Charity of the Bread of Life." -Fr. Leonard Feeney, Bread of Life
