Prayer After Holy Communion # 6
What strength hast Thou not imparted to my soul, good Lord,
by means of this holy communion!
Oh! How much I need it.
The road I have to traverse is so difficult,
that without Thee I should fear to venture upon it.
In a short time I shall return to my daily occupations;
I shall continue my life of yesterday;
I shall be exposed to the same temptations,
I shall find myself with my usual faults.
But Jesus, thou Who didst help the saints,
Thou by Thy grace,
help me to preserve in all my words and actions,
modestly, meekness, and humility.
Help me to make Thy presence within me visible to all;
let others see in me the sweetness of Thy charity,
generosity, and kindness.
Amen.
