Prayer Before Communion 1
O Lord, I am not worthy that Thou should come under the roof of my house, for I am sinful, but say Thou first a word and my soul shall be healed. Say unto my soul: "Your sins are forgiven." I am barren and wanting all righteousness, and have but Thy compassion, mercy and Love-of-Man. And Thou hast condescended from the heaven of Thine ineffable glory to our afflictions and accepted to be born in a manger.
Reject not, O my blessed Saviour to come into my lowly and afflicted soul that awaits Thy radiant presence. But accept to come into my soul to cleanse it.
O Thou who disdained not to enter into the leper's house and to heal him, forbid me not to approach Thy pure Body and Thy Holy Blood, O Thou who prevented not the woman, who was a sinner, from kissing they feet.
Let my communion be for partaking with Thee and for effacing all defilement, the mortification of my lusts, the doing of Thy Life-giving commandments, the healing of my soul and body from all sins, the acceptance of Thy gifts, the endwelling of Thy grace, the descent of Thy spirit for union with and abiding in Thee, that I may live for the glory of Thy Holy Name. Amen.
Prayer Before Communion 2
Jesus Christ, Lord of Life & God All Mighty, thou art the true live bread who descended from heaven and thou blessed with life those who receive your Holy flesh and blood.
Bestow upon thy servant heavenly blessings to enable me to receive your holy flesh and blood with due respect and humbleness.
Alert my heart with grace and grant me your salvation so that I may taste the sweetness of your heavenly grace which is wholly hidden in this sacred secret.
Grant me faith free from doubt or questioning so as to commence to you with unfailing faith and believing that this is your holy flesh and blood Emmanuel our Lord. Prepare me to receive Holy communion without falling into judgment but to unite me spiritually with you for forgiveness of my sins and for my accepted presence at your fearful kingdom. Glory to You, the Father and the Holy Spirit now and until eternity, Amen.
Prayer After Communion 1
My heart has been filled with joy and my tongue with rejoicing. Let my spirit glorify the Lord, and my soul rejoice in God my Savior. I have drawn nigh to Thee, O Lord, to clothe me with a radiant garment and make me worthy to enter into Thy wedding.
Let my union with Thee today be forever, for through it I increase and grow firm in virtue, wax strong in faith, and strengthen my hope. Let it become a sign of salvation, a raiment of grace, a garment of the new birth, a purity and righteousness of body and soul, a cleansing of love, an eternal happiness and joy, a good answer before Thy dreadful tribune.
I commit myself to Thy compassion to make me one with Thee and under Thy will. I call forth my mind and my senses to Thee. My will do Thou bless to obey Thy will.
Enliven my heart and awaken my conscience. Disperse the fantasies of the adversaries. Still the tempest. Walk with me and calm my terror. Quench my thirst, kindle the flame of Thy love in my heart. Abide with me for the day is far spent, and accompany me until daybreak. For Thou are my goal and my happiness. Thou alone, O Lord, forever. Amen.
Prayer After Communion 2
O God, how great is the gift that you saved for your fearers. How sweet is your grace to those who love you.
I thank you my Lord for looking after me, You granted me this holy food that doesn't perish, by which you opened to us the way to eternal life.
Kindle the flames of your love in me, save the blessing of Your grace in my heart not for judgment or to fall into judging but to receive glory, purity of soul and body and to live with you, survive for you and continue with your grace. So guide me to your holiness and fill me with your grace and consecrate me with your soul. Glory to You, the Father and the Holy Spirit now and until eternity, Amen.
