My Lord Jesus Christ,
who for the love you bear us,
remain night and day in this Sacrament,full of compassion and of love,awaiting, calling and welcoming all who come to visit you.
I believe that you are present
in the Sacrament of the Altar.
I adore you from the abyss of my nothingness and I thank you for all the graces you have given me until now, and in particular, for having given me your Most Holy Mother Mary as my advocate
and for having called me
to visit you in this church.
I now salute your Most Loving Heart, and this for three ends: first, in thanksgiving for this great gift; second, to make amends to you for all the outrages which you receive in this Sacrament from all your enemies; third, I intend by this visit to adore you in all the places on earth
in which you are present in this Sacrament and in which you are the least revered and the most abandoned.
My Jesus, I love you with my heart.
I grieve for having until now so many times offended your infinite goodness. I purpose by your grace never more to offend you for the time to come; and now, miserable and unworthy though I am, I consecrate myself to you without reserve.
I give you and renounce my entire will, my affections, my desires, and all that I possess.
From now on, use me
and all that I have as you wish.
All I ask of you and desire is your holy love, final perseverance
and the perfect accomplishment of your will.
I recommend to you the souls in Purgatory; but especially those who had the greatest devotion
to the Most Blessed Sacrament
and to the Most Blessed Virgin Mary. I also recommend to you all poor sinners.
And finally, my dear Saviour,
I unite all my affections with the affections
of your most loving Heart,
and I offer them with you to your Eternal Father
and beg him for your sake
and for love of you,
graciously to accept and grant them. Amen.
By St. Alphonsus de Liguori
