St Thomas Aquinas Prayer
 

Pope Francis

O merciful God,

grant that I may ever perfectly

do Your Will in all things.

Let it be my ambition to work

only for Your honor and glory.


 

Let me rejoice in nothing

but what leads to You,

nor grieve for anything

that leads away from You.


 

May all passing things

be as nothing in my eyes,

and may all that is Yours

be dear to me,

and You, my God,

dear above them all.


 

May all joy be

meaningless without You

and may I desire

nothing apart from You.

May all labor and toil

delight me when it is for You.


 

Make me, O Lord,

obedient without complaint,

poor without regret,

patient without murmur,

humble without pretense,

joyous without frivolity,

and truthful without disguise.


 

Give me, O God,

an ever watchful heart

which nothing can ever

lure away from You;

a noble heart,

which no unworthy affection

can draw downwards to the earth;

an upright heart,

which no evil can warp;

an unconquerable heart,

which no tribulation can crush;

a free heart,

which no perverted affection

can claim for its own.


 

Bestow on me, O God,

understanding to know You,

diligence to seek You,

and wisdom to find You;

a life which may please You,

and a hope which may

embrace You at the last.




Amen
 




St Thomas Aquinas
