Act of Charity # 1

O my God!

I love Thee,

with my whole heart and soul,

and above all things,

because Thou art infinitely good and perfect,

and most worthy of all my love;

and for Thy sake,

I love my neighbour as myself.

Mercifully grant,

O my God!

that having loved Thee on earth,

I may love and enjoy Thee

for ever in heaven.

Amen.
