The Voice of the Disciple.
Behold I come unto Thee, O Lord, that I may be blessed through Thy gift, and be made joyful in Thy holy feast which "Thou, O God, of Thy goodness hast prepared for the poor. "159 Behold in Thee is all that I can and ought to desire, Thou art my salvation and redemption, my hope and strength, my honour and glory. Therefore "rejoice the soul of Thy servant this day, for unto Thee," O Lord Jesus, "do I lift up my soul. "160 I long now to receive Thee devoutly and reverently, I desire to bring Thee into my house, so that with Zacchaeus I may be counted worthy to be blessed by Thee and numbered among the children of Abraham. My soul hath an earnest desire for Thy Body, my heart longeth to be united with Thee.
