After communion, faithful Catholics seek the grant of a partial indulgence by making an act of thanksgiving. (See Bottom of Page)
Many prefer recitation of the Anima Christi, which I have found popular. This page receives many visitors compared to others. That leads me to believe, people have a preference for this prayer.

Within thy wounds hide me. Permit me not to be separated from thee. From the wicked foe defend me. At the hour of my death call me. And bid me come to thee.

ALMA de Cristo, santifícame
Cuerpo de Cristo, sálvame
Sangre de Cristo, embriágame
Agua del costado de Cristo, lávame
Pasión de Cristo, confórtame
Oh buen Jesús, óyeme
Dentro de tus llagas, escóndeme
No permitas que me separe de Tí
Del maligno enemigo, defiéndeme
En la hora de mi muerte, llámame
Y mándame ir a Tí
Para que con Tus santos Te alabe
Por los siglos de los siglos.
