Prayer to our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament

Prayer to our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament

OUR sins, O LORD, darken our minds, and we lose the benefit of loving Thee as Thou deservest.  Enlighten us with a ray of thy bright light. Thou art Friend, REDEEMER, Father of all who turn repentant to thy Heart; and we return to Thee sorrowing. Save us, O JESUS; provide out of thy infinite bounty for our miseries. O JESUS, we hope in Thee because we know that our salvation cost Thee thy life sacrificed upon the Cross, and induced Thee to dwell continuously in the Blessed Sacrament, in order to be united with us as often as we desire. We, O LORD, to thank Thee for the great love Thou bearest us, promise with the help of thy grace to receive Thee in the Blessed Sacrament as often as possible; to declare thy praises in church and in every place, without human respect. O LORD, confiding in thy Sacred Heart, we beseech Thee, to preserve in thy love those who love Thee, and to invite all to receive Thee daily at the altar in accordance with thy burning desire.
