Stay With Me Lord
Stay with me, Lord, for it is necessary to
have Thee present so that I do not forget Thee. Thou knowest how easily I
abandon Thee.
Stay with me, Lord, because I am weak, and I
need Thy strength that I may not fall so often.
Stay with me, Lord, for Thou art my light,
and without Thee I am in darkness.
Stay with me, Lord, to show me Thy will.
Stay with me, Lord, so that I hear Thy voice
and follow Thee.
Stay with me, Lord, for I desire to love
Thee very much and to be in Thy company always.
Stay with me, Lord, if Thou wisheth me to be
faithful to Thee.
Stay with me, Lord, for as poor as my soul
is I want it to be a place of consolation for Thee, a nest of love.
Stay with me, Jesus, for it is getting late
and the day is coming to a close, and life passes; death, judgment, eternity
approaches.
It is necessary to renew my strength, so
that I will not stop along the way and for that, I need Thee. It is getting
late and death approaches, I fear the
darkness, the temptations, the dryness, the cross, the sorrows. O how I need
Thee, my Jesus, in this night of exile!
Stay with me tonight, Jesus, in life with
all it’s dangers. I need Thee.
Let me recognize Thee as Thy disciples did
at the breaking of the bread, so that the Eucharistic Communion be the Light
which disperses the darkness, the force which sustains me, the unique joy of my heart.
Stay with me, Lord, because at the hour of
my death, I want to remain united to Thee, if not by communion, at least by
grace and love.
Stay with me, Jesus, I do not ask for Divine
consolation, because I do not merit it, but the gift of Thy Presence, oh yes, I
ask this of Thee!
Stay with me, Lord, for it is Thou alone I
look for, Thy Love, Thy Grace, Thy Will, Thy Heart, Thy Spirit because I love
Thee and ask no other reward but to love Thee more and more.
With a firm love, I will love Thee with all my heart while on earth and continue to love Thee perfectly during all eternity. Amen
With a firm love, I will love Thee with all my heart while on earth and continue to love Thee perfectly during all eternity. Amen
