Soul of Christ, sanctify me;
\nBody of Christ, save me;
\nBlood of Christ, refresh me;
\nWater from the side of Christ, wash me;
\nPassion of Christ, strengthen me.
\nO good Jesus, hear me.
\nWithin your wounds, hide me.
\nLet me never be separated from you:
\nFrom the powers of darkness, defend me;
\nIn the hour of my death, call me and bid me come with you,
\nthat with your saints I may praise you for ever and ever. Amen.
