SOUL OF MY SAVIOR

Soul of my savior,

Sanctify my breast.

Body of Christ,

be thou my saving guest.

Blood of my savior, �bathe me in thy tide.

Wash me with waters,

Flowing from his side.

William Joseph Maher (1823 – 1877)

SOUL OF MY SAVIOR

Strength and protection

May thy passion be.

Oh blessed Jesus

Hear and answer me.

Deep in thy wounds Lord,

Hide and shelter me

So shall I never,

never part from thee.

SOUL OF MY SAVIOR

Guard and defend me

From the foe malign.

In death’s dread moments

Make me only thine.

Call me and bid me

come to thee on high.

Where I may praise thee

With thy saints for aye.

William Joseph Maher (1823 – 1877)
