Prayer Before Communion

PRAYER BEFORE COMMUNION

O my God, I firmly believe that you are truly present in the Holy Eucharist. I confess that I am a poor sinner and am not worthy to receive you. But you just say a word and my soul shall be healed, and then I can receive you into my soul. I am sorry for all my sins, because they have offended you and I resolve never to commit them again. Lord, have mercy and forgive me. Lord, I desire to receive you with my whole heart; come into my poor soul and make my heart your abode.
