The Journey with Jesus: Poems and Prayers

Selected by Dan Clendenin

Ambrose of Milan (340–397)

A prayer attributed to Saint Ambrose

Lord Jesus Christ, you are for me medicine when I am sick;
you are my strength when I need help;
you are life itself when I fear death;
you are the way when I long for heaven;
you are light when all is dark;
you are my food when I need nourishment.
