Dedicatory Prayer

(From St. Francis deSales' Introduction to the Devout Life, his prayer and mine)

"Ah, sweet Jesus, my Lord, my Savior, and my God, behold me here prostrate before your Majesty as I pledge and consecrate this work to your glory. By your blessing give life to its words so that the souls for whom it has been written may receive from it the sacred inspirations I desire for them, in particular that of imploring your infinite mercy in my behalf to the end that while I point out to others the way of devotion in this world, I myself may not be rejected and eternally condemned in the other, but that with them I may forever sing as a canticle of triumph words that with my whole heart I utter in witness of fidelity amid the hazards of this mortal life:

Live, Jesus! Live, Jesus!

Yes, Lord Jesus, live and reign in our hearts forever and ever. Amen."
