O most Sacred, most loving Heart of Jesus,
Thou art concealed in the Holy Eucharist,
and thou beatest for us still…
I worship thee with all my best love and awe,
with my fervent affection,
with my most subdued, most resolved will.
O my God, when thou dost condescend to suffer me to receive thee,
to eat and drink thee, and thou for a while takest up thy abode within me,
O make my heart beat with thy heart.
St John Henry Newman
