Y Jesus,  I  love  Thee  with  my  whole  heart, and I  wish  to  live  always  united  to  Thee. As I  can  not  now  receive  Thee  sacramentally, I receive  Thee  in  spirit. Come, then,  into  my soul;  I  embrace  Thee,  and  I  unite  my  entire self to  Thee;  and  I  beseech  Thee  never  more to allow  me  to  be  separated  from  Thee.

Y Jesus,  living  in  the  blessed  Eucharist, come and  live  in  my  heart  in  the  might  of Thy  love,  by  which  all  within  me  may  become transformed. Reign in  me  over  all  my  faculties, so  that  I  may  no  longer  live  or  act  but by Thy  life  and  movement. Be Thou,  O  my Love,  the  Life  of  my  life,  that  so  each  day  my heart  may  become  more  and  more  like  Thine.

Y sweet  Jesus,  come  into  my  poor  heart and remain  with  me. Poor as  it  is,  may it be  to  Thee  a  sanctuary  from  those  who  hate Thee, as  Thy  Heart  is  to  me  a  refuge  and  a sanctuary  from  my  enemies.
