Prayer of Saint Thomas More

Give me, good Lord, a full faith and a fervent charity,
a love of you, good Lord, incomparable above the love of myself;
and that I love nothing to your displeasure but everything in an order to you

Take from me, good Lord, this lukewarm fashion,
or rather cold manner of meditation and this dullness in praying to you.
And give me warmth, delight and life in thinking about you.

And give me your grace to long for your holy sacraments
and specially to rejoice in the presence of your blessed body,
sweet Saviour Christ, in the holy sacrament of the altar,
and duly to thank you for your gracious coming.
