My Risen Jesus, I devoutly kiss and adore the glorious wound of Thy left foot. By this adorable wound, and by Thy most sacred Passion and Resurrection, grant me grace to receive the sacrament of Thy Body and Blood with purity of body and mind. Glory be to the Father . . .
My Risen Jesus, I devoutly kiss and adore the glorious wound of Thy sacred side. By this adorable wound, and by Thy most sacred Passion and Resurrection, give me a lively faith, a firm hope, and a perfect charity, so that I may love Thee with all my heart, soul, and strength.
