  
Pierced for Love
You raised your heart like communion,
Offering a holocaust of love
To the sacrificial lamb,
Placing it upon the alter of salvation,
Nailing to God's Will,
Your burning love of crucifixion.
With arms outstretched,
You languished upon the angelic lance,
Splitting your heart in two,
For the love of one will,
Breathed by the Father,
Born in the Son,
Bleeding with the Spirit.
Psalm 40
Taken from the book:
Psalms to Padre Pio
In Commemoration of the Beatifucation of
Blessed Pio, OFM Cap.
