Father, I abandon myself into your hands. Do with me what 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 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.
— Charles de Foucauld
