Thanks be to you, my Lord Jesus Christ,
For all the benefits you have won for me,
For all the pains and insults you have borne for me.

Father, I am seeking: I am hesitant and uncertain;
O God, watch over each step of mine
and guide me.

Day by day we bless you, Lord:
we praise you for ever and for ever.
Of your goodness, Lord, keep us without sin for today.

Lord Jesus, our Savior, let us come to you.
Our hearts are cold; warm them with your selfless love.
Our hearts are sinful; cleanse them with your precious blood.
Our hearts are weak; strengthen them with your joyous Spirit.

Give us, Lord,
a humble, quiet, peaceable, patient and charitable mind,
and in all our thoughts, words and deeds,
a taste of the Holy Spirit.

Holy Mary, Mother of our Lord Jesus Christ,
into the hands of your Son and into yours,
I commend this day and this night, and at all times,
my soul, and my whole body.

Impart to me, O God,
the understanding to know you,
the diligence to seek you,
a way of life to please you,
and a faithfulness that may embrace you.
