LYRICS
Soul of my saviour
from 4th century Latin prayer,
Anima Christi.
tune tune ANIMA CHRISTI

Soul of my saviour
Sanctify my breast
Body of Christ,
be thou my saving guest.
Blood of my saviour,
Bathe me in thy tide.
Wash me with waters,
Flowing from his side.

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.

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.
