Prayer of abandonment

Posted by Anne Witton on Thursday, July 2, 2015 Under: Prayer

Father, I abandon myself into your hands;

do with me what you will.

Whatever you may do, I thank you:

I am ready for all, I accept all.

Let only your will be done in me,

and in all Your creatures -

I wish no more than this, O Lord.

Into your hands I commend my soul;

I offer it to you with all the love of my heart,

for I love you Lord,

and so need to give myself,

to surrender myself into your hands,

without reserve,

and with boundless confidence,

For you are my Father.

--Charles de Foucauld (1858-1916)
