Sisters of Life Rhapsody in Madrid

Yesterday I received the magazine that the Sisters of Life send out and this issue featured their experience at World Youth Day in Madrid.  One article highlighted a rhapsody written by Sr. Mariae Agnus Dei and it's awesome.  Eight Sisters of Life along with three people from the band that were performing at the Love & Life Center at the Palacio de Deportes and three Franciscan Friars of the Renewal led the youth in singing it.  It was a rhapsody where they split the crowd up into four parts: guys, girls and two groups of both guys and girls with the following lyrics:
Guys to the girls: You are beautiful, you are precious, you are sacred in the eyes of the Lord.
Girls to the guys: I must confess, I look for holiness - a man strong in virtue.
First guys and girls group: My Savior and my God, I lay my life down before Thee.  I place my faith in your truth.  I trust in your mercy. 
Second guys and girls group: I thank you Lord for making me.  For truth, goodness, and beauty.  I thank you Lord for your ways do bring me greatest peace and freedom.
Watch it and listen to it here:
