Act of Divine Presence

My God,

I firmly believe that Thou art everywhere present

and seest all things.

Thou seest my nothingness,

my inconstancy, my sinfulness.

Thou seest me in all my actions;

Thou seest me in this my meditation.

I bow down before Thee,

and worship Thy Divine majesty with my whole being.

Cleanse my heart from all vain,

wicked, and distracting thoughts.

Enlighten my understanding,

and inflame my will,

that I may pray with reverence,

attention and devotion.

Amen.
