Prayer To The Most Holy Trinity (A)
by Blessed Elizabeth of the Trinity
O my God, Trinity Whom I adore, help me to forget myself utterly. So that I may establish myself in Thee, changeless and calm, as though my soul were already in eternity. May nothing disturb my peace, nor draw me forth from Thee, O my Immutable Lord … But may I penetrate more deeply every moment into the depths of Thy mystery. Give peace to my soul. Make it Thy Heaven, Thy cherished dwelling place, the place of Thy repose.
May I never leave Thee there alone but keep me there, all absorbed in Thee, in living faith, adoring Thee and wholly yielded up to Thy creative action.
Oh, my Christ, Whom I adore! Crucified by Love! Fain would I be the bride of Thy Heart. Fain would I cover Thee with glory. I wish to love Thee, even unto death. Yet I realize my weakness. I beseech Thee to clothe me with Thy Self, to identify my soul with all the movements of Thine Own. Immerse me in Thyself, possess me wholly, substitute Thyself for me, that my life may be but a radiance of Thine own. Enter my soul as adorer, redeemer and saviour.
Oh, Eternal Word, utterance of my God! I long to pass my life in listening to Thee. I wish to become quite docile, that I may learn all from Thee! Through all darkness, all privations, all helplessness, I crave to keep Thee ever with me, and to dwell beneath Thy lustrous beams.
Oh my beloved Star! Do fascinate me that I cannot wander from Thy light. Oh consuming fire, Spirit of Love, descend within me and reproduce in me, as it were, an incarnation of the Word; that I may be to Him another humanity wherein He renews His mystery! And Thou, Oh Father, bend down towards Thy poor little creature. Behold in her none other than Thy beloved Son, in Whom Thou hast set all Thy pleasure. Oh, my Three, my All, my Beatitude, infinite solitude, immensity wherein I lose myself. I yield myself to Thee as Thy prey. Bury Thyself in me, that I may be buried in Thee, until I depart to contemplate in Thy Light the abyss of Thy greatness!
