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 Jesus 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 Out poured,
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 Blessed By Thy Forgiveness
We Will Not Be Afraid.
