To You I desire to consecrate all my thoughts,
words, actions, and sufferings;
that I may think of You, speak of You,
willingly refer all my actions to Your greater glory,
and suffer willingly whatever You shall appoint.
Lord, I desire that in all things Your will may be done;
because it is Your will,
and in the manner that You desire.
I beg of You to enlighten my understanding,
to inflame my will,
to purify my body,
and to sanctify my soul.
