|
<p>We pray Thee, heavenly Father, to hear us in Thy love,<br>
|
|
And pour upon Thy children the unction from above;<br>
|
|
That so in love abiding, from all defilement free,<br>
|
|
We may in pureness offer our Eucharist to Thee.</p>
|
|
<p>Be Thou our Guide and Helper, O Jesu Christ, we pray;<br>
|
|
So may we well approach Thee, if Thou wilt be the Way:<br>
|
|
Thou, very Truth, hast promised to help us in our strife,<br>
|
|
Food of the weary pilgrim, eternal Source of life.</p>
|
|
<p>And Thou, Creator Spirit, look on us, we are Thine;<br>
|
|
Renew us in Thy graces, upon our darkness shine;<br>
|
|
That, with Thy benediction, upon our souls outpoured,<br>
|
|
We may receive in gladness the body of the Lord.</p>
|
|
<p>O Trinity of Persons! O Unity most high!<br>
|
|
On Thee alone relying Thy servants would draw nigh;<br>
|
|
Unworthy in our weakness, on Thee our hope is stayed,<br>
|
|
And blest by Thy forgiveness we will not be afraid.</p>
