Padre Cruz in ivory.
Prayer to Father Cruz:
Most kind and loving Father Cruz,
In union with you
I reverently worship the divine majesty.
I know your gifts
And the grace with which you were favored
During your mortal life.
For the glory you now enjoy,
I give you affectionate thanks
And I ask you from the bottom of my soul
And through your powerful intercession
May grace be granted to me
To live and die holy.
I also beg you to reach me
(formulate the special request).
And if what I ask
Not suited to the glory of God
And for the benefit of my soul,
I just want to achieve that
May the one and the other be more consistent.
