Prayer before a Crucifix
Look
down upon me, good and
gentle Jesus, while before your face I humbly kneel, and with burning soul pray
and beseech you to fix deep in my heart lively sentiments of faith, hope and
charity, true contrition for my sins, and a firm purpose of amendment while I
contemplate with deep love and tender pity your five wounds, pondering over
them within me, calling to mind the words which David, your prophet, said of
you, my good Jesus: "They have pierced my hands and my feet; they have
numbered all my bones." Ps. 22: 17-18
