All of seeing



All of seeing, all of hearing,
Ev'ry fragrance we perceive,
All our touch and all our tasting,
In thy Heart we consecrate.
In its cooling fire, Mary,
All our senses immolate.

All of heart can know of sadness,
Ev'ry thing it knows of joy,
Ev'ry thing it feels as fearsome,
In thy Heart we consecrate.
In its noble fire, Mary,
All our passions elevate.

All the soul can claim of wisdom,
All it stores in memory,
All the science that we master,
In thy Heart we consecrate.
In its humble fire, Mary,
All our knowledge dedicate.

All our hearts perceive as lofty,
All that moves our will to love,
Ev'ry gift that makes us Christ-like,
In thy Heart we consecrate.
In its living fire, Mary,
All our being consummate.
