O Eternal Father, in heaven You crown the merits of those
who in this life serve You faithfully. For the sake of
the most pure love Your little daughter, St. Theresa of
the Child Jesus, had for you - love which binds You to give
her whatever she desires - listen to the petitions which
she offers up to You in my behalf, and hear my prayers
by granting me the grace I ask. Make my troubles your own - speak a word for me to our Lady Immaculate, whose flower of special love you were - to that Queen of heaven who smiled on you at the dawn of life." Beg her as the Queen of the heart of Jesus to obtain for me by her powerful intercession, the grace I yearn for so ardently at this moment, and that she join with it a blessing that may strengthen me during life. Defend me at the hour of death, and lead me straight on to a happy eternity. Amen. |
