Lord Jesus, by the Father's plan and by the working of the Holy Ghost of Your own free will You died and mercifully redeemed the world from sin and from everlasting death. I adore and venerate You as much as ever I can, though my love is so cold and my devotion so poor. Thank You for the good gift of this Your holy Body and Blood, which I desire to receieve, as cleansing from sin, and for a defence against it. - Prayer before Receiving the Body and Blood of Christ by St. Anselm of Canterbury
