Prayer of St. Francis Before the Crucifix


Most High, Glorious God,
enlighten the darkness in my heart,
and give me correct FAITH,
sure HOPE and perfect CHARITY,
with understanding and knowledge, Lord,
so that I may fulfill Your true and holy command,
Amen.

  2. Thank you for directing me to your homepage, it is very uplifting and inspirational. As you say, this prayer says it all, especially enlightening the darkness of my heart. If they weren't born centuries apart, I would thing St. Francis and John of the Cross were co-authors of many of their works...
