Jesus, loving companion of Your children,
You have extended Your friendship to all.
You opened Your arms without discrimination,
offering Your warmth to those seeking comfort.
Endow me with the virtue of such a friendship,
to know, love, and trust all on an equal basis;
to share my patronizing without favoritism,
and to be pleasant towards the destitute.
Fashion my heart to reflect Your qualities,
those befitting of a cordial association.
Jesus, You showed me the way to true friendship:
Blessed is Your amazing and warm Person!
