O beloved disciple of the Lord
who saw Him
and touched Him,
who believed in Him
with all your being,
who loved Him so
that no love but His
surpassed your own –
speak to us this day
of the Word of life
who has come among us,
died for us,
and been raised from the grave.
Continue to proclaim that love
which alone saves men from sin,
which alone banishes death from our midst;
let us share in your love for Jesus
and join you in proclaiming
Him who has come
in the joy you knew so well.
Point us to Him even this day,
that we too might see
and believe.
