Beloved:
See what love the Father has bestowed on us
that we may be called the children of God.
Yet so we are.
The reason the world does not know us
is that it did not know him.
Beloved, we are God's children now;
what we shall be has not yet been revealed.
We do know that when it is revealed we shall be like him,
for we shall see him as he is.
Everyone who has this hope based on him makes himself pure,
as he is pure.
R.
Alleluia, alleluia.Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened,
and I will give you rest, says the Lord.
R.
Alleluia, alleluia.
