O most Sacred Heart Of Jesus, in which dwelleth the fullness of the divinity and of those fullness we have all received, Thou art the fountain of life and holiness. Grant me a heart that is like unto Thine. Since Thou art our refuge and our strength, Who art the author of mercy, hearken to my prayers and grant that what I ask with faith, I may effectually obtain if it is for the good of my soul and the greater glory of God. Amen.
Divine and most merciful Heart Of Jesus, Who through Thy sincere desire and deep love to bring me unto salvation, hast given consolation and dispelled the fears that becloud our hearts; inflame my heart with love of Thee, and wash away the indifference to which my soul is often subjected because of my innumerable sins. Grant me the grace necessary to atone for all my iniquities and ingratitude. O Heart most lovable, may my offering be acceptable to Thee, so that it may purify me from my sins and grant that I may obtain the grace I need during this novena if it is for the good of my soul and the greater glory of God. Amen.
__ I fly to Your Mercy, Compassionate God, Who alone are good.
Although my misery is great and my offenses are many,
I trust in Your Mercy because You are the God of Mercy,
and it has never been heard of in all ages,
nor do Heaven or Earth remember,
that a soul trusting in Your Mercy has been disappointed.
(State your intentions)
__ Jesus, Friend of a lonely heart, You are my haven.
You are my peace.
You are my salvation.
You are my serenity in moments of struggle and amidst an ocean of doubts.
Amen
