21st Sunday of Ordinary Time

In the Gospel today, Jesus tells us, 'Try your best to enter by the narrow door, because, I tell you, many will try to enter and will not succeed.'



Holy Jesu, every day
Keep us in the narrow way;
And, when earthly things are past,
Bring our ransomed souls at last
Where they need no star to guide,
Where no clouds Thy glory hide.

In the heavenly country bright,
Need they no created light;
Thou its Light, its Joy, its Crown,
Thou its Sun which goes not down;
There forever may we sing
Alleluias to our King!

William Chatterton Dix (1837-1898)



Happy Sunday!
