Hope


A Hope-Filled Prayer

O sweetest Lord Jesus Christ, may my soul ever yearn towards Thee:
May my soul seek Thee, find Thee,
tend
towards attainment of Thee,
ever meditate on Thee,
and do all things to the praise and glory of Thy Holy Name.

Do Thou alone be my hope,
my whole trust,
my delight,
my joy,
my rest,
my peace and my sweet contentment.

Do Thou alone be my refuge and my help,
my wisdom and my possession,
my treasure in whom my heart and
my soul remain fixed immovably, forever.
Amen.


-St. Bonaventure

My Mom gave me this prayer for the end of our choir practice last night. I thought it was beautiful. I think it's going to be a regular prayer for us.
