surrender all...


"Take, O Lord, and receive all my liberty, my memory,
my understanding, and my whole will.

Thou hast given
me all I am and all that I possess.

I surrender it all
to Thee that Thou mayest dispose of it according to
Thy will.

Give me but Thy love and Thy grace:

these
are sufficient for me, and I will have no more to
desire."


St. Ignatius of Loyola
