LECTIO 1

 

Veni creator Spiritus, 

mentes tuorum visita,

imple supera gratia,

quae tu creasti pectora. 


LECTIO


Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’ 


MEDITATIO


I celebrate Mass daily, but do I know you, Lord? 

I eat your body and drink your blood, but do I love you, Lord?

Am I afraid to let go and trust in you?

Do you know me, Lord?

Who am I in your eyes?

Help me, Lord!


ORATIO


Speak to me, o Lord, kindly so: let your presence enlighten my heart!


CONTEMPLATIO


Your compassion comforts me: let me rest in you, o Lord.
