Prayer for Priests (O Jesus, Eternal Priest)

O Jesus, Eternal Priest, keep Thy servants within the shelter of Thy Sacred Heart, where none may harm them. Keep unstained their anointed hands, which daily touch Thy Sacred Body. Keep unsullied their lips, purpled with Thy Precious Blood. Keep pure and unearthly their hearts, sealed with the sublime mark of Thy glorious Priesthood. Let Thy holy love surround them and shield them from the contagion of the world. Bless their labors with abundant fruit, and may the souls to whom they minister be here below their joy and consolation, and in heaven their beautiful and everlasting crown. Amen.
