Prayer to Our Divine Lord Before Communion

O MOST loving Lord Jesus Christ, I beseech thee by all the love of thy sweetest Heart that thou wouldst vouchsafe to offer for me all that perfection wherewith thou didst stand arrayed in the presence of God the Father when thou didst ascend on high to enter into thy glory; and through thy sinless and unspotted manhood to render my polluted soul pure and free from every sin, and through thy most glorious Divinity to endow and adorn it with every virtue, and through the virtue of that love, which has for ever united thy supreme Divinity to thine immaculate Humanity, to furnish it befittingly with thy best gifts. Amen.
