\\nSt. Padre Pio Communion Prayer:
\\nStay with me, Lord, for it is necessary to have you present so that I do not forget You. You know how easily I abandon You
\\nStay with me, Lord, for You are my life and without You I am without fervor.
\\nStay with me, Lord, for You are my light and without You I am in darkness.
\\nStay with me, Lord, so that I hear Your voice and follow You.
\\nStay with me, Lord, for I desire to love You very much and alway be in Your company.
\\nStay with me, Lord, if You wish me to be faithful to You.
\\nStay with me, Lord, as poor as my soul is I want it to be a place of consolation for You, a nest of Love.
\\nStay with me, Jesus, for it is getting late and the day is coming to a close and life passes, death, judgment and eternity approach. It is necessary to renew my strenth, so that I will not stop along the way and for that, I need You. It is getting late and death approaches, I fear the darkness, the temptations, the dryness, the cross, the sorrows. O how I need You, my Jesus, in this night of exile!
\\nStay with me tonight, Jesus, in life with all its dangers, I need You.
\\nLet me recognize You as Your disciples did at the breaking of the bread, so that the Eucharistic Communion be the Light which disperses the darkness, the force which sustains me, the unique joy of my heart.
\\nStay with me, Lord, because at the hour of my death, I want to remain united to You, if not by Communion, at least by grace and love.
\\nStay with me, Lord, for it is You alone I look for, Your Love, Your Grace, Your Will, Your Heart, Your Spirit, because I love You and ask no other reward but to love You more and more.
\\nWith a firm love, I will love You with all my heart while on earth and continue to love You perfectly during all eternity. Amen.
