An Act of Spiritual Communion
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
(attr. to St. Alphonsus Ligouri)

Alma Redemptoris Mater
Alma Redemptoris Mater,
Quæ pervia caeli porta manes,
Et stella maris, succurre cadenti,
Surgere qui curat populo: tu quae genuisti,
Natura mirante, tuum sanctum Genitorem
Virgo prius ac posterius, Gabrielis ab ore
Sumens illud ave, peccatorum miserere.— Gregorian Chant; Orig. Latin

Loving Mother of the Redeemer
Loving mother of the Redeemer,
Gate of Heaven, Star of the Sea,
Assist your people who have fallen yet strive to rise again,
To the wonderment of nature you bore your Creator,
Yet remained a virgin after as before,
You who received Gabriel's joyful greeting,
Have pity on us poor sinners.— English Translation
