Self-Abandonment

Charles de Foucauld’s Prayer of Self-Abandonment:

 

Father, I give myself into your hands

Do with me what you will

Whatever you may do, I thank you

I am ready for all, I accept all you ask.

Let your will be done in me

I wish no more than this.

Father, I give myself into your hands.

Do with me what you will.

 

Whatever you may do, I thank you.

Into your loving hands I commend all my life.

Give to you with all my heart.

I love you, only Lord,

Father, I give myself into your hands.

Do with me what you will.

Whatever you may do, I thank you.

 

So I need to give my own self without reserve,

Give with boundless confidence,

For you are Oh God my all.

Father, I give myself into your hands.

Do with me what you will.

Whatever you may do, I thank you.
