In Your love, exiling Yourself on earth, divine Jesus, You immolate Yourself for me. My beloved, receive my whole life; I want to suffer, I want to die for You. Lord, you told us yourself: "We can do nothing more than die for those we love". And my supreme love is you, Jesus! It's getting late, already the day is fading, stay with me, celestial pilgrim. With your cross I climb the hill; come guide me, Lord, on the way! Your voice echoes in my soul, I want to be like you, Lord. I ask for suffering... Your word of flame, burn my heart! Before entering eternal glory, "the God-Man had to suffer", it was through his cross that he won victory; oh sweet savior, didn't you tell us? For me, on the foreign shore, what scorns have you not received! I want to hide on earth, to be the last in everything, for you, Jesus. My beloved, your example invites me to lower myself, to despise honor in order to steal you away, I want to remain small; by forgetting myself, I will charm your Heart. My peace is in solitude, I ask for nothing more. Pleasing you is my only study, and my beatitude: it's you, Jesus! You, the great God whom the universe adores, you live in me, a prisoner night and day, your sweet Voice implores me at all hours, you repeat to me: "I thirst! I thirst for love! "I'm your prisoner too, and I too want to repeat your tender, divine prayer, my beloved, my brother: "I thirst for love! I thirst for love! Fill my hope, increase in me, Lord, your divine fire! I thirst for love! Great is my suffering. Ah! I would like to fly to you, my God! Your love is my only martyrdom; the more I feel it burning within me, the more my soul desires you. Jesus, let me die of love for you! Amen."
