Prayer
After Holy Communion
I have sought thee, I have found
Thee, Lamb of mercy, Holy Guest,
Thy eternal love has bound Thee,
captive in a mortal breast.
Oh! That I had sooner tasted joys
I never knew before;
Oh! had I the youth I wasted,
back again to live it over.
Oh! that I have sooner
known Thee Oh! Could I the past
recall, yet thou will not disown me,
Father of the Prodigal!
To my breast Thy Son descending,
sweetly there appeals for me,
let me then,
thus humbly bending, pledge the
rest of my life to Thee.
