A Prayer to Her — St. Thérèse
Your, servant of God,
St. Therese of the Child
Jesus; who in her dying
moments did say; I will
spend my heaven in doing
good upon earth, hasten to
let fall upon me a shower of
roses that I too may be
inflamed with that fire of love
which burned so brilliantly in
your heart and which
brought you so gloriously to
the arms of Jesus, my Lord
and my God.
Amen.
