dear Jesus, till the evening of life. Pardon me all my past transgressions; for I love Thee truly with my whole heart; and when death comes, say to me: " Enter thou into the joy of thy Lord." Amen.
Evening Prayers.
IN the name of the Father, ✠ and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen. Come, O Holy Ghost, fill the hearts of Thy faithful, and kindle in them the fire of Thy love.
Place Yourself in the Presence of God and Humbly Adore Him.
GREAT God! the Lord of heaven and earth! I prostrate myself before Thee. With the adorable Heart of Jesus, the immaculate heart of Mary, and with all Thy angels and saints, I adore Thee, and render to Thee the homage of my being and life. I acknowledge Thee to be my Creator and sovereign Lord. I devote myself to Thy divine service now and for ever. Amen.
AN ACT OF FAITH.
O MY God! I firmly believe all the sacred truths which Thy Holy Catholic Church believes and teaches; because Thou hast revealed them, Who canst neither deceive nor be deceived.
AN ACT OF HOPE.
O MY God! relying on Thy infinite power, goodness, and promises, I hope to obtain the pardon of my sins, the assistance of Thy grace, and life everlasting, through the merits of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Redeemer.
