\u00a0<\/p>\n

O Jesus! meek and humble of heart, Hear me.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span>
\nFrom the desire of being esteemed, Deliver me, Jesus.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

From the desire of being loved, Deliver me, Jesus.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

From the desire of being honored, Deliver me, Jesus.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

From the desire of being praised, Deliver me, Jesus.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

From the desire of being preferred to others, Deliver me, Jesus.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

From the desire of being consulted, Deliver me, Jesus.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

From the desire of being approved, Deliver me, Jesus.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

From the fear of being humiliated, Deliver me, Jesus.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

From the fear of being despised, Deliver me, Jesus.<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\nThat others may be loved more than I,<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2028Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

That others may be esteemed more than I,<\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

That, in the opinion of the world, others may increase and I may decrease,<\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

That others may be chosen and I set aside,<\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

That others may be praised and I unnoticed,<\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

That others may be preferred to me in everything,<\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

That others may become holier than I,<\/span>
\nprovided that I may become as holy as I should,<\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
