THE JESUS PSALTER
Begin by kneeling devoutly,
or bowing, at the adorable Name of Jesus, saying: THE SECOND PART ELEVENTH PETITION
Jesus, help me in my human relationships so that I may always see Thee in others. Cause me, O blessed Lord, to remember always, that Thou art present to all our words and actions. May I always speak the truth in charity and never hurt my neighbor by speaking evil of him when it is prudent or better to be silent. Control in me, dear Jesus, all inordinate affections to things of the flesh so that I treat others with love and respect. Thy power defend, Thy wisdom direct, Thy Fatherly pity correct me, and cause me to live here among other in such manner that I may be fit for the conversation of Angels hereafter. Have mercy also on the Holy Souls in Purgatory, for Thy bitter Passion, I beseech Thee, and for Thy glorious Name, Jesus.O Blessed Trinity, One Eternal God, have mercy on me.
