Shining, She Appeared

 

Oh sweet Lady of Guadalupe

Queen of the Americas

Protector of the unborn

Continue to pray for us

 

To saintly Juan Diego

You appeared in surprising way

And left your message

True for then and today

 

To a humble indian worker

Your message to convey

Changing lives forever

That cold winter day

 

"Build a chapel you said

And change your ways

Trust in God’s healing

Sickness is healed today"

 

With flowers you painted

A lasting image so bright

So many on that day

Beheld this marvelous sight

 

Your image a gift

On simple cloak, the symbol

Of your love and care

Your message of love

 

Your eyes look out

With softness and strength

Reflect goodness and virtue

Bringing grace and peace

 

Changing continents forever

Reminding us of God above

You came to intercede for life

And share your Son’s love
