Prayer by St Alphonsus Liguori …
You are fire; enkindle in me your love.
You are light; enlighten my mind with the knowledge of eternal things.
You are Dove; give me innocence of life.
You are the gentle Breeze; disperse the storms of my passions.
You are Tongue; teach me how to bless you always.
You are Cloud; shelter me under the shadow of your protection.
And lastly, are the Giver all heavenly gifts; animate me,
I beseech you, with your grace; sanctify me
with your charity; enlighten me
with your wisdom; adopt me by your goodness as your child,
and save me in your infinite mercy;
so that I may ever bless,praise, and love;
first during this life on earth,
and then in heaven for all eternity.
Amen
