prayer of surrender

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)
