Before and after Communion

Fourth prayer

English

May thy holy Body, O Lord Jesus Christ our God, profit me unto life eternal, and thy precious Blood unto the remission of my sins. May this Eucharist be unto me for joy, and health, and gladness, and render me, a sinner, worthy to stand at the right hand of thy glory in thy terrible and second Coming-again; through the intercessions of thine all-pure Mother, and of all the Saints.

Church Slavonic

Те́ло Твое́ Святое́, Го́споди Иису́се Христе́ Бо́же наш, да бу́дет ми в Живо́т ве́чный, и Кровь Твоя Честна́я во оставле́ние грехо́в; бу́ди же ми благодаре́ние сие́ в Ра́дость, здра́вие и весе́лие; в стра́шное же и второ́е прише́ствие Твое́ сподо́би мя, гре́шнаго, ста́ти одесну́ю сла́вы Твоея́, моли́твами Пречи́стыя Твоея́ Ма́тери, и всех святы́х.
