Charles de Foucauld

Father, I abandon myself into your hands; 

Do with me whatever you will.

Whatever you may do, I thank you;

I am ready for all, I accept all. 

Let only your will be done in me, 

And in all your creatures - 

I wish no more than this, O Lord. 

Into your hands I commend my spirit; 

I offer it to you with all the love of my heart, 

For I do love you, Lord, 

And so need to give myself, 

To surrender myself into your hands, 

Without reserve, 

And with boundless confidence, 

For you are my Father.
