Take, Lord, and receive (Prayer of Saint Ignatius)

Suscipe

It is the prayer of surrender by Saint Ignatius of Loyola, from the Spiritual Exercises. It returns to God everything that was received and asks only for His love and grace.

Take, Lord, and receive all my liberty, my memory, my understanding, and my entire will.

All that I have and possess, I received from You. Therefore, to You, Lord, I return and restore it, so that You may dispose of all according to Your will.

Grant me only Your love and Your grace, for this is enough for me, and I desire nothing else from Your infinite mercy. Amen.
