Credited to St. Ignatius of Loyola, as used in Sunday service yesterday. It really strikes me, especially the bold line.
Jesus, may all that is you flow into me.
May your body and blood be my food and drink.
May your passion and death be my strength and life.
Jesus, with you by my side, enough has been given.
May the shelter I seek be the shadow of your cross
Let me not run from the love which you offer.
But hold me safe from the forces of the enemy.
On each of my dyings shed your light and your love.
Keep calling to me until that day comes
When, with your saints, I may praise you forever.
Amen.
