Hearts

O God, infinitely good, even this would not suffice. 5. I should wish, moreover, to love thee as the Divine Word, made Man, loved thee. 6. As he loved thee at his birth. 7. As he loved thee expiring on the cross. 8. As he loves thee continually in the tabernacles where he lies hid. 9. As he loves, and shall love thee for ever. 10. In fine, my God, I wish to love thee as thou lovest us ; but since that is impossible, grant that I may love thee as well as I know how, as much as I can, and as much as thou wishest me. Amen
