O Jesus, look down in mercy on Thy holy Church. Bless our Holy Father, and grant what he asks of Thee. O Jesus, have pity on all sinners, heretics, and infidels. Save them by Thy most precious blood.
O Jesus, bless my father, my mother, my brothers, and sisters; my relatives, friends, and benefactors; and all for whom I have promised to pray; bless them so that they may attain to eternal happiness.
O Jesus, have pity on the poor souls suffering in purgatory, and give them eternal rest.
PETITIONS
O JESUS, merciful Saviour, relying on Thy infinite goodness, I hope to obtain through this holy communion all the graces of which I stand in need for my greater sanctification and eternal salvation. Begging Thy pardon for all the transgressions of my past life, I first of all beseech Thee to give me the grace that I may never again fall into any mortal sin. I would rather be dead than live a moment without Thy grace and Thy love. But Thou, O Lord, knowest how weak I am and how prone to evil. Do Thou strengthen me by Thy grace, that I may be faithful in doing Thy will. Thou canst heal all the evils
