ANIMA CHRISTI

(TRANSLATED)

'ANIMA CHRISTI’1

SOUL

(Translated)

OUL of Christ, be my sanctification;

Body of Christ, be my salvation ;
Blood of Christ, fill all my veins ;
Water of Christ's side, wash out
my stains;

Passion of Christ, my comfort be;
O good Jesu, listen to me;
In thy wounds I fain would hide,
Ne'er to be parted from Thy side;
Guard me, should the foe assail

me;

Call me when my life shall fail me;
Bid me come to Thee above,
With Thy saints to sing Thy love,

World without end. Amen.

'Translated about 1854

THE HEART OF MARY

Holy the breasts that fed,

But holier still the royal heart
That in His passion bled.
