O God, come to our aid.

O Lord, make haste to help us.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

Now and forever, Amen.
May God be praised!

Hymn

"How is it possible to have a son
If I have never known a man"
The troubled woman demanded
After hearing the words of the angel.

"How is it possible for a man
To be born again when he is old?"
Nicodemus demanded from Jesus
"Can he go back into his mother's womb?"

"The Holy Spirit will come upon you
And cover you all with his shadow
You are to give birth to a son
And you must give him the name of Jesus.

He who is not born again of the Spirit
Is not able to enter my kingdom,
As you feel the breath of the wind,
You will hear the Spirit of the Father".

"How can it be that all this happens?"
"If you have faith everything can happen".
Thus says the Mother of God:
"Be it done to me according to your word".
