My God, let me know and love
you, so that I may find my happiness in
you. Since I cannot fully achieve this
on earth, help me to improve daily until
I may do so to the full. Enable me to
know you ever more on earth, so that I
may know you perfectly in heaven. In
that way my joy may be great on earth,
and perfect with you in heaven. O God of
truth, grant me the happiness of heaven
so that my joy may be full in accord
with your promise. In the meantime let
my mind dwell on that happiness, my
tongue speak of it, my heart pine for
it, my mouth pronounce it, my soul
hunger for it, my flesh thirst for it,
and my entire being desire it until I
enter through death in the joy of my
Lord forever. Amen.
