Gospodine, nauči me ljubiti

tiho, vjerno i bez mjere.

Vodi me tamo gdje su stope zaboravile hodati,

tamo gdje svjetla više nema,

tamo gdje je nada gotovo utrnula,

tamo gdje još uvijek žive Tvoja stvorenja,

zaboravljena i napuštena.

Nauči me još više žeđati za Tobom,

tražeći Tvoje lice u svakom čovjeku,

osobito u onima koje je teško voljeti.

Daj mi srce strpljivo,

riječi blage

i ruke spremne pomoći.

Daj da budem prema drugima

kao što si Ti bio prema meni –

strpljiv, radostan

i ispunjen beskrajnim praštanjem.

Neka moja ljubav ne traži sebe,

nego neka bude odraz Tvoje ljubavi.

Amen.

Lord, Teach Me to Love

Lord, teach me to love

quietly, faithfully, and without measure.

Lead me to places where footsteps have long been forgotten,

where the light no longer shines,

where hope has almost faded away,

where Your children still live,

forgotten and abandoned.

Teach me to thirst even more for You,

seeking Your face in every person,

especially in those who are difficult to love.

Give me a patient heart,

gentle words,

and hands ready to help.

Grant that I may be to others

as You have been to me—

patient, joyful,

and filled with endless forgiveness.

May my love seek not itself,

but be a reflection of Your love.

Amen.
