Stay with me, Lord! Stay with me, Lord, for I need Your presence so as not to forget You. You know how easily I can abandon You. Stay with me, Lord, for I am weak and need Your strength so as not to fall. Stay with me, Lord, for You are my life, and without You I lose my fervor. Stay with me, Lord, for You are my light, and without You darkness reigns. Stay with me, Lord, to show me Your will. Stay with me, Lord, so that I may hear Your voice and follow You. Stay with me, Lord, for I desire to love You and to remain always in Your company. Stay with me, Lord, if You want me to be faithful to You. Stay with me, Lord, because, however poor my soul may be, I want it to become a place of consolation for You, a nest of love. Stay with me, Jesus, for it is getting late and the day is coming to an end; life passes, and death, judgment, and eternity draw near. I need You to renew my energy and not stop along the way. It is getting late, death is approaching and I am afraid of the darkness, of temptations, of lack of faith, of the cross, of sadness. Oh, how I need You, my Jesus, on this night of exile! Stay with me tonight, Jesus, because throughout life, with all its dangers, I need You. Grant, Lord, that I may recognize You as Your disciples recognized You when they broke the bread, so that Eucharistic Communion may be the light that dispels the darkness, the strength that sustains me, the only joy of my heart. Stay with me, Lord, because at the hour of death I want to be united with You, if not by Communion, at least by grace and love! Stay with me, Jesus. I do not ask for divine consolations, because I do not deserve them, but only the gift of Your presence, oh, that I beg of You! Stay with me, Lord, for it is only to You that I seek Your love, Your grace, Your will, Your heart, Your Spirit, because I love You, and the only reward I ask of You is to be able to love You more and more. With this resolute love, I wish to love You with all my heart while I am on earth, so that I may continue to love You perfectly for all eternity. So be it.
