My God, I believe, I adore, I trust, and I love Thee;
and I beg pardon for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not trust, and do not love Thee.
My God, I believe, I adore, I trust, and I love Thee;
and I beg pardon for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not trust, and do not love Thee.

O Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost I adore Thee profoundly.
I offer Thee the Most Precious Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in tabernacles throughout the world, in reparation
for the outrages, sacrileges, and indifference, by which He is offended.
By the infinite merits of the Sacred Heart of Jesus,
in union with the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg the conversion of poor sinners.

O Most Holy Trinity, I adore Thee, My God, my God, I love Thee in the Most Blessed Sacrament.
O my Jesus, it is for love of Thee, in reparation for the offenses committed
against the Immaculate Heart of Mary and for the conversion of poor sinners.
Act of Consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus

Most Sweet Jesus, Redeemer of the human race, look down upon us,
humbly prostrate before Thine altar. We are Thine and Thine we wish to be;
but, to be more surely united with Thee, behold each one of us
freely consecrates himself today to Thy Most Sacred Heart.
Many indeed have never known Thee; many, too, despising Thy precepts, have rejected Thee.
Have mercy on them all, most merciful Jesus, and draw them to Thy Sacred Heart.
Be Thou King, O Lord, not only of the faithful who have never forsaken Thee,
but also of the prodigal children who have abandoned Thee;
grant that they may quickly return to their Father's house,
lest they die of wretchedness and hunger.
Be Thou King of those who are deceived by erroneous opinions,
or whom discord keeps aloof, and call them back to the harbor of truth and unity of faith,
so that soon there may be but one flock and one Shepherd.

Be thou King of all those who are still involved in the darkness of idolatry of or Islamism,
and refuse not to draw them all into the light and kingdom of God.
Turn Thine eyes of mercy toward the children of that race once Thy chosen people.
Of old they called down upon themselves the Blood of the Savior;
may It now descend upon them a laver of redemption and of life.

Grant, O Lord, to Thy Church assurance of freedom and immunity from harm; give peace and order to all nations, and make the earth resound from pole to pole with one cry: Praise to the Divine Heart that wrought our salvation; to It be glory and honor forever. Amen.
Act of Reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus

O Adorable Heart of Jesus, glowing with love for us and inflamed with zeal for our salvation,
O Heart ever sensible of our misery and the wretchedness to which our sins have reduced us,
infinitely rich in mercy to heal the wounds of our souls,
behold us humbly prostrate before Thee to express the sorrow
that fills our hearts for the coldness and indifference with which we have so long requited
the numberless benefits Thou has conferred upon us.
With a deep sense of the outrages heaped upon Thee by our sins and the sins of others,
we come to make a solemn reparation of honor to Thy most sacred majesty.
It was our sins that overwhelmed Thy Hear with bitterness;
it was the weight of our iniquities that pressed down Thy face to the earth in the Garden of Olives and caused Thee to expire in anguish and agony on the Cross.
But now repenting and sorrowful, we cast ourselves at Thy feet and implore forgiveness.

Adorable Heart of Jesus, source of true contrition and ever merciful to the penitent sinner,
impart to our hearts the spirit of penance, and give to our eyes a fountain of tears,
that we may sincerely bewail our sins now and for the rest of our days.
O would that we could blot them out even with our blood.
Pardon them, O Lord, in Thy mercy, and pardon and convert to Thee
all that have committed irreverences and sacrileges against Thee in the Sacrament of Thy love,
and thus give another proof that Thy mercy is above all Thy works.

Divine Jesus, with Thee there is mercy and plentiful redemption.
Deliver us from our sins. Accept the sincere desire we now entertain and our holy resolution,
relying on the assistance of Thy grace, henceforth to be faithful to Thee.
And in order to repair the sins and ingratitude by which we have grieved Thy most tender and loving Heart,
we are so resolved in the future ever to love and honor Thee in the most adorable Sacrament of the Altar,
where Thou art ever present to hear and grant our petitions
and to be and grant our petitions and to be the food and life of our souls.
Be Thou, O compassionate Jesus, our Mediator with Thy Heavenly Father,
Whom we have so grievously offended, strengthen our weakness;
confirm our resolutions of amendment.
And as Thy Sacred Heart is our refuge and our hope when we have sinned,
so may it be the strength and support of our repentance, that nothing in life or death may ever again separate us from Thee. Amen.

Cor Jesu Sacratissimum, miserere nobis.
Cor Jesu Sacratissimum, miserere nobis.
Cor Jesu Sacratissimum, miserere nobis.


Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, Have mercy on us.
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, Have mercy on us.
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, Have mercy on us.
Amen
