Act of Hope and Confidence after Holy Communion #1

O Jesus, sweetest and most merciful Savior, I adore You and give You thanks with all my heart, For coming to my soul in Holy Communion.

My Lord Jesus, in You alone, I have hope and confidence, And I firmly believe that You are present in my heart.

Grant me the grace to always remain in You, And to keep Your Love always burning in my soul, So that I may live only for You, my God.

May Your sweet and loving Presence in my heart, Transform me into Your likeness, And help me to radiate Your light and love to the world.

My Jesus, I trust in You, I hope in You, And I love You with all my heart. Amen.
