Soul of Christ

Jesus, may all that is you flow into me.

May your body and blood
be my food and drink.

May your passion and death
be my strength and life.

Jesus, with you by my side
enough has been given.

May the shelter I seek
be the shadow of your cross.

Let me not run from the love
which you offer,

But hold me safe from the forces of evil.

On each of my dyings
shed your light and your love.

Keep calling to me until that day comes,

When, with your saints,
I may praise you forever. Amen.

– David L. Fleming SJ

This prayer is a contemporary paraphrase of the Anima Christi – a favorite prayer of St. Ignatius which he placed at the beginning of his book of spiritual exercises. He frequently suggested that the retreatant conclude a prayer period by reciting this prayer.
