O Lord, I know not what to ask of you.
You alone know what are my true needs.
You love me more than I myself know how to love.
Help me to see my real needs which are concealed from me. I dare not ask either a cross or consolation.
I can only wait on you; my heart is open to you.
Visit and help me, for thy great mercy's sake.
Strike me down and heal me, cast me down and raise me up.
I worship in silence your holy will and your inscrutable ways.
I offer myself as a sacrifice to you.
I put all my trust in you.
I have no other desire than to fulfill your will. Teach me how to pray. Pray you yourself in me. Amen.
