PRAYER FOR THE BEATIFICATION OF THE SERVANT OF GOD
O Jesus, who, to put our pride to
confusion didst will to become a little
child, and who later pronounced that
solemn decree: "Unless ye become as
little children ye shall not enter the Kingdom
of Heaven," deign to listen to our
humble prayer in regard to her who
lived perfectly that life of spiritual childhood,
and who has so well recalled to us
the way.
O little Babe of Bethlehem, by the ineffable charms of Thy Divine Infancy, O adorable Face of Jesus, by the humiliations of Thy Passion, we implore, that if it be for the glory of God and for the sanctification of souls, the halo of the Blessed may soon irradiate the pure brow of Thy childlike spouse, Thérèse of the Child Jesus and of the Holy Face.
