Heavenly Father, today I offer a prayer.
For the gift of life you shower, my faith on you became stronger.
With the angel you sent named Mother Ignacia, I was made zealous.
You keep on pondering me on everything, making me unjealous.

As time will pass, Oh God, hope you won't be tired.
Keep us; I, my family and friends, away from harm: especially on times when we got wired.

May you shed your arms to us, for a hug, every time we're being mortified.
Hope you won't be jaded of our countless rants and wishes you'd be hearing as we cried.

I became wiser and braver, because you thought me so.
I have a graceful love ones who keeps me warm as I grow.

For everything you've done to me, I am more than blessed to know,
That you are my God, who loves to forgive a sinner like me,
Our savior who will choose to hold our hand; never letting us go.

And so, in everything or nothing, I will endlessly praise you and utter your name wherever I go.

Amen.
