Prayer written by Padre Pio to Jesus where he obtained great graces

O JESUS

that nothing is worth detaching from You,
neither life nor death.
Following you alive, tied to you passionate,
let me expire with you on Calvary,
to ascend to You in glory; follow You
in tribulations and persecutions,
to be made worthy one day,
to come and love you
to the unveiled glory in Heaven,
to sing you the hymn of thanksgiving
for all your suffering.

O JESUS

that you face like You and with peaceful peace
and tranquility all pains and travails
that I can meet on this land of exile,
I combine everything with your merits,
to your pains, to your atonements,
to your tears to cooperate with You
to my salvation and flee from sin
which was the only cause that made you sweat blood
and brought you death.

Destroy me
everything that is not to your taste
and with the fire of your Charity
write your pains in my heart
and hold me tightly to You,
with a knot so tight and so sweet,
that I never abandon You in your pains ever again.
