My late mother had a tremendous devotion to the Sacred Heart - and in my home there is a picture of the Sacred Heart with a perpetual light underneath.

He's been a good friend to me.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in Thee.

Then in honor of your late mother, another mostly forgotten hymn to the Sacred Heart...with words by Eleanor C. Donnelly, and music by the great Charles Gounod:

1. Sacred Heart in accents burning Pour we forth our love of Thee; here our hopes nad here our yearnings Meet and mingle tenderly. Heart of mercy, ever eager, all our woes and wounds to heal! Heart most patient, Heart most pure! To our souls, Thy Depths reveal.

(Refrain) Sacred Heart of our Redeemer! Pierced with love on Calvary! Heart of Jesus ever loving, make us burn with love of Thee! Praise to Thee! O Sacred Heart!

2. Heart of bounty, Thou art bringing All Thy thirsting children here. Where the living waters springing, tell of hope nad comfort near. O Thou source of ev'ry blessing! Sweetest, strongest, holiest, blest! Be our treasure here on earth, and in heav'n be thou our rest.

Kumbaya ain't got nutting on that!

Comment:

Our scientific-materialistic age cannot "prove" private revelations. Theologians, if pressed, admit that we do not have to believe in them.

But it is impossible to deny the message Margaret Mary heralded: that God loves us with a passionate love. Her insistence on reparation and prayer and the reminder of final judgment should be sufficient to ward off superstition and superficiality in devotion to the Sacred Heart while preserving its deep Christian meaning.

Yet, catholics plow on ahead and continue to pray/worship/venerate to these folks.
