Consume Me, Oh Lord - (Song/Poem Attempt #85 from Fides Aeternam)

*prayer of the Ecclesia Aeternam sometimes said or sung before receiving communion


Lord, I am not worthy to receive You.

R: But only say the word and my soul shall be healed.

I consume You so that I may be consumed by You.

R: Consume me, oh Lord.

Consume me with Your presence and erase every trace of sin within me.

R: Consume me, oh Lord.

Consume me until only You remain.

R: Consume me, oh Lord.

Consume me in Your Holy Flames.

R: So that my soul will be purified.

Consume me in Your Love.

R: So that my soul will be purified.

Consume me in Your Truth.

R: So that my soul will be purified.

You give Yourself, Body and Soul, to us and we give ourselves, body and soul, to You.

R: Amen.
