Divino Pelicano
Frei Gilson
Divine Pelican
I was born from the wound at Your side
From Your open chest
From Your heart, You made me Yours, oh my Jesus
Now I only live for You
Your blood is my sustenance
Oh pelican, tear open Your chest, give me to drink every moment
I will reach the wound at Your side
To seek Your life-giving blood
Strength, light, love, wisdom to learn to love, oh My Love
In communion, open Your heart
Oh divine spender
Who gives Yourself completely, to each of us, to the poor, to the beggar
Oh blood, You give Yourself entirely to me, every moment I want to come to Your wound
I want to drink from You, drink Your virtue
Grace, wisdom, strength, love
Let me place my lips on the wound at Your side
Let me drink Your blood
Only You give glory to the Father
Only You give the Spirit of Love
In the Eucharist, You are my nourishment
I am Your living tabernacle of love
I am Your bride, my Divine King
Forever until the end
You in me, I in You
You in me, I in You
