A Prayer to Begin the Day

Lord Jesus, my Saviour, let me now come to thee:

My heart is cold; O Lord, warm it with thy selfless love.

My heart is sinful; cleanse it by thy precious blood.

My heart is weak; strengthen it by thy joyous Spirit.

My heart is empty; fill it with thy divine presence.

Lord Jesus, my heart is thine; possess it always and only for thyself.

–after the thought of Saint Augustine
