THE JESUS PSALTER
Begin by kneeling devoutly,
or bowing, at the adorable Name of Jesus, saying: THE SECOND PART EIGHTH PETITION
Jesus, grant me grace to truly love Thee for Thine infinite goodness, and for the wonderful bounties which I have received, and hope for ever to receive from Thee. Let the remembrance of Thy kindness and patience conquer the malice and wretched inclinations of my fallen nature. Let the consideration of my many deliverances, Thy frequent graces, and continual assistance in my life, make me ashamed of my ingratitude. Thou grants me all Thy mercies, so that I may love Thee as my only good. O my dear Lord, my whole life shall be nothing but a desire of Thee; and because I indeed love Thee, I will most lovingly keep Thy Commandments. Have mercy
also on the Holy Souls in Purgatory, for Thy
bitter Passion, I beseech Thee, and for Thy glorious Name, Jesus.
