Lord, I am Yours,
And I must belong to no one but You.
My soul is Yours,
And I must live only by You.
My will is Yours,
And I must love only for You.
I must love You as my first cause,
Since I am from You.
I must love You as my end and rest,
Since I am for You.
I must love You more than my own being,
Since my being subsists by You.
I must love You more than myself,
Since I am all Yours and all in You.
Amen
-Francis de Sales
