Lord Jesus, let me know myself; and let me know You, and desire nothing else but You.
Let me love myself only if I love you, and do all things
for Your sake.
Let me humble myself and exalt You, and think of nothing
else but You.
Let me die to myself and live in You, and take whatever
happens as coming from You.
Let me forsake myself and walk after You, and ever desire
to follow You.
Let me flee from myself and turn to You, so that I may
merit to be defended by You.
Let me fear for myself, let me fear You and be among
those chosen by You.
Let me distrust myself and trust in You, and ever obey
for the love of You.
Let me cleave to nothing but You, and ever be poor
because of You.
Look upon me that I may love You.
Call me that I may see You, and forever possess You, for
all eternity.
