The Family We Seek

Where is the family we all seek
     Whose face we long to see,
A vision for whom we all weep:
     Your Holy Trinity?

Is it too much of You to ask
     To show us all Yourself,
Will You no longer wear a mask
     So our souls will know health?

Look up, You say, and see my star
     That guides all wise to me;
I’ve come to you from heaven far
     In Holy Family.

Are Jesus, Mary, Joseph, three
     My likeness on the earth;
In them you can Myself now see
     As families know new birth. 

For every family now can live
     As likeness of those three
And to the world will myself give
     In human trinity.
