HOLY Womb! O sacred Breast! Pure couch, where Jesus loved to rest, And thou, dear Heart, even still more grand, Thou wonder of God's mighty hand; O Heart, replete with wonders, hail! Our treasure in this earthly vale, To thee is given the power to scan The wonders of God's love toward man. Through that pure Heart where thou didst dwell, That Heart that loved thine own so well, May all their homage, Jesus, send To thee, for ages without end. Amen.
