Ave Maria Meditations
In Your mercy, Lord, You called me, taught my sinful heart and mind, else this world had still enthralled me, and to glory kept me blind.
Lord, I did not freely choose You till by grace You set me free; for my heart would still refuse You had Your love not chosen me.
Now my heart sets none above You, for Your grace alone I thirst, knowing well, that if I love You, You, O Lord, have loved me first.
