Prayer of St. Peter Claver

Let my eyes take their sleep,
but may my heart always keep watch for You.
May Your right hand bless Your servants who love You.

“May I be united with the praise that flows from You,
Lord Jesus, to all Your saints; united with the gratitude
drawn from Your heart, good Jesus,
that causes Your saints to thank You;
united with Your passion, good Jesus,
by which You took away our guilt;
united with the Divine longing
that You had on earth for our salvation;
united with every prayer that welled
from Your Divine heart, good Jesus,
and flowed into the hearts of Your saints.
