Soul of my Saviour, sanctify my breast,
Body of Christ, be Thou my saving guest;
Blood of my Savior, bathe me in Thy tide,
Wash me with water flowing from Thy side.

Strength and protection, may thy Passion be;
O Blessed Jesus, hear and answer me;
Deep in they wounds, Lord, hide and shelter me,
So I shall never never part from thee.

Guard and defend me from the foe malign;
In death's  dread moments make me only thine;
Call me and bid me come to thee on high,
Where I may praise thee with thy saints for aye.
