Take, Lord, and receive all my liberty,
my memory, my understanding,
and my entire will,
All I have and call my own.
You have given all to me.
To you, Lord, I return it.
Everything is yours; do with it what you will.
Give me only your love and your grace,
that is enough for me.
- St. Ignatius of Loyola
This is the Loyola Press translation. It doesn't quite match the way I say the prayer myself (which is entirely mixed up with two competing musical versions), but the essential ideas are all there.
