Many Marys

Lord Jesus, I thank you

That you are showing your love

To the many Mary Magdalenes

The broken girls of the world

Hurt and looking for love

Who in their need of it

And in their confusion

Fell into lust and perversion

But only for awhile

And in the end

Only to be rescued by you

Always searching for love

They were lost for awhile

Being used by the enemy

And men who did not honor them

Now coming home to you

Finding the love they sought for

And always wanted

That you always wanted to give them

Your eternal tenderness

So sweet, so deep

A bottomless ocean of love

The True Sea of Love

You

All your beauty and glory

Now rushing to fill them

Melting away the pain

Bringing hope and a future

And eternal destiny in you

So that one day

These Marys will stand before you

To account for their lives

And have much fruit to present to you

That you many in turn say

What they will so long to hear

“Well done good and faithful servant

Enter into the Joy of your Master”
