O my crucified God, behold me at Your feet; do not cast me out,
now that I appear before You as a sinner. I have offended You exceedingly
in the past, my Jesus, but it shall be so no longer.
Before You, O Lord, I place all my sins; I have now considered Your own
sufferings and see how great is the worth of that Precious Blood that flows
from Your veins.
O my God, at this hour close Your eyes to my want of merit, and since You
have been pleased to die for my sins, grant me forgiveness for them all,
that I may no longer feel the burden of my sins, for this burden, Dear
Jesus, oppresses me beyond measure.
Assist me, my Jesus, for I desire to become good whatsoever it may cost;
take away, destroy, utterly root out all that You find in me contrary to
Your holy will. At the same time, I pray You, Lord Jesus, to enlighten me
that I may be able to walk in Your holy light. Amen.
(Prayer Book of the Saints, Our Sunday Visitor, Inc., p. 175)
