Jesus, my Lord,
I confess that I am a sinner.
But in Your goodness
You invited me to approach Your Holy Table
and to partake of Your heavenly Banquet.
Trusting in Your mercy I come to You
with confidence, albeit with it a contrite
and humble heart.
Lord, I am not worthy that You
should enter under my roof; but say
only the word, and my Soul shall be healed.
Come to me, Jesus, come to me,
and keep me in Your love
and Your grace forevermore.
Amen.
