Prayer of Spiritual Communion

I believe that you are present in the Blessed Sacrament.
I love you above all things and I desire You in my soul.
Since I cannot NOW receive You sacramentally come at least
spiritually into my heart. As though You were already there,
I embrace You and unite myself wholly to You.
Permit not that I should ever be separated from You. Amen.
This weekend remember to pray
for our beloved deceased,
especially those who have died
so that we may be free.
God Bless and Keep You.
Stay Safe.
