PRAYERS TO JESUS CHRIST
FROM THE RACCOLTA
106
My Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God,
I humbly beseech Thee to scatter the
darkness of my mind, and to give me
lively faith, firm hope and burning love.
Grant, O my God, that I may know Thee well
and may do all things in Thy light and in
conformity to Thy holy will. Amen.
107
O Jesus our Saviour, give us Thy blessing,
deliver us from everlasting death,
assist Thy Holy Church,
give peace to all nations,
deliver the Holy Souls in Purgatory.
108
O Lord God, King of Heaven and earth,
may it please Thee this day to order and to hallow,
to rule and to govern our hearts and our bodies,
our thoughts, our words and our works,
according to Thy law and
in the doing of Thy Commandments,
that we, being helped by Thee,
may here and hereafter worthily be saved
and delivered by Thee, O Saviour of the world,
Who livest and reignest for ever and ever. Amen.
[Roman Breviary]
109
Deliver me, Lord Jesus Christ
from all my iniquities, and from
every evil, make me ever hold
fast to Thy Commandments and
never allow me to be separated
from Thee.
[The Roman Missal]
110
We offer Thee, Lord Jesus Christ,
the merits of Mary, Thy mother and ours,
as she stood beneath the Cross,
in order that, by her tender intercession,
we may obtain the happy fruits of
Thy Passion and Death.
111
O dearly beloved Word of God,
teach me to be generous, to serve Thee
as Thou dost deserve,
to give without counting the cost,
to fight without fretting at my wounds,
to labor without seeking repose,
to be prodigal of myself without looking
for any other reward save that of knowing
that I do Thy holy will
[R. Card. Merry del Val]
112
Change my heart, O Jesus,
Thou Who didst empty Thyself for love of me!
Make known to my spirit
how excellent were Thy sacred humiliations.
Let me begin this day, illumined by Thy Divine light,
to do away with that portion of the natural man,
that still lives undiminished in me.
This is the chief source of my misery,
this the barrier that I constantly
oppose to Thy love.
[R. Card. Merry del Val]
