We Pray Thee, Heavenly Father, To Hear Us In Thy Love,
And Pour Upon Thy Children The Unction From Above;
That So In Love Abiding, From All Defilement Free,
We May In Pureness Offer Our Eucharist To Thee.
Be Thou Our Guide And Helper, O Jesu Christ, We Pray;
So May We Well Approach Thee, If Thou Wilt Be The Way:
Thou, Very Truth, Hast Promised To Help Us In Our Strife,
Food Of The Weary Pilgrim, Eternal Source Of Life.
And Thou, Creator Spirit, Look On Us, We Are Thine;
Renew Us In Thy Graces, Upon Our Darkness Shine;
That, With Thy Benediction, Upon Our Souls Outpoured,
We May Receive In Gladness The Body Of The Lord.
O Trinity Of Persons! O Unity Most High!
On Thee Alone Relying Thy Servants Would Draw Nigh;
Unworthy In Our Weakness, On Thee Our Hope Is Stayed,
And Blest By Thy Forgiveness We Will Not Be Afraid.
