O, crucified Jesus! in whom I live, and without whom I die; mortify in me all sensual desires; inflame my heart with your holy love, that I may no longer esteem the vanities of this world, but place my affections entirely on you.
Richard Allen (1760 – 1831)
Let my last breath, when my soul shall leave my body, breathe forth love for you, my God; I entered into life without acknowledging you, let me therefore finish it in loving you; O let the last act of life be love, remembering that God is love.
Amen.
