Anima Christi

Sou of Christ, sanctify me!
Body of Christ, save me!

Blood f Christ, refresh me!

Water from the side of Christ, wash me!
Passion of Christ, strengthen me!
O good Jesu, hear me!

Within Thy wounds hide me!
Suffer me not to be separated from Thee!
From the malicious enemy defend me!
In the hour of my death, call me!
And bid me come to Thee,

That with Thy saints I may praise Thee For ever and ever,

Amen.
