Corpus Christi
Day 1
O AMIABLE Jesus, who hast given us in the adorable Eucharist, so convincing a proof of thy infinite love, permit us to thank thee in the name of all thy creatures for the blessings included in this one precious gift. We adore thee, O hidden Deity! and most ardently wish we could offer thee such love as would atone for our own offences, and those committed by all mankind against this most amiable mystery. We firmly purpose to become from this moment the devoted adorers of this sacrament of love, and to take thy Eucharistic life for the rule and model of ours. O living Bread of eternal life, we humbly beseech thee to remove all obstacles to our frequently and worthily receiving thee; and to grant us so tender a devotion to this mystery of love, that our hearts and thoughts may ever be turned to thee, present on our altars, and every action of our lives be directed to the perfect accomplishment of thy holy will. Amen.
