Ave Maria Meditations
LITTLE WHITE GUEST
You have come to my heart, dearest Jesus, I am holding You close to my breast;
I’m telling You over and over, You are welcome, Little White Guest.
I love You, I love You, my Jesus, O please do not think I am bold;
Of course, You must know that I love You, but I am sure that you like to be told.
I’ll whisper, “I love You, my Jesus,” and ask that we never may part;
I love You, O kind, loving Jesus and press You still nearer my heart.
And when I shall meet You in Heaven, my soul then will lean on Your breast;
And You will recall our fond meetings, when You were my Little White Guest.
