Come, my Light, and illumine my darkness. Come, my Life, and revive
me from death. Come, my Physician, and heal my wounds. Come, Flame of
Divine Love, and burn up the thorns of my sins, kindling my heart with the
flame of Thy Love. Come, my King, sit upon the Throne of my heart and reign
there. For Thou art alone my King and Lord.
