Novena to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
August 13 - August 21
O Lord, open thou my lips.
And my mouth shall declare
thy praise.
O God, come to my
assistance;
O Lord, make haste to help
me.
Glory be to the Father, and
to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning,
is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
Sweet Heart of Mary,
Be my salvation.
Immaculate Heart of Mary,
Convert sinners, save souls
from hell!
Prayer to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
Immaculate Virgin, who being
conceived without sin, didst direct every movement of thy most pure heart
toward God, and wast always submissive to His divine Will; Obtain for me the grace to hate sin with all my heart and to learn from thee to live in perfect resignation
to the will of God.
An
Act of Reparation
O blessed Virgin, Mother of
God, look down in mercy from Heaven, where thou art enthroned as Queen, upon
me, a miserable sinner, thine unworthy servant. Although I know full well my own unworthiness,
yet in order to atone for the blasphemies, sacrileges, insults and offenses
that are done to thee by impious and blasphemous men, from the depths of my
heart I praise and extol thee as the purest, the fairest, the holiest creature
of all God's handiwork. I bless thy holy Name, I praise thine exalted privilege
of being truly Mother of God, ever Virgin, conceived without stain of sin,
gloriously assumed body and soul into heaven, Co-Redemptrix of the human race,
and Mediatrix of all graces. I bless the Eternal Father, Who chose thee in an
especial way for His daughter; I bless the Word Incarnate, Who took upon
Himself our nature in thy bosom and so made thee His Mother; I bless the Holy
Ghost, Who took thee as His bride. All honor, praise and thanksgiving to the
ever-blessed Trinity, Who predestined thee and loved thee so exceedingly from
all eternity as to exalt thee above all creatures to the most sublime heights.
O Virgin, holy and merciful, Obtain for all who offend thee the grace of
repentance, and graciously accept this
poor act of homage from me thy servant, obtaining likewise for me from thy
Divine Son the pardon and remission of all my sins. Amen.
Novena Prayer
O glorious and immaculate Heart
of Mary, thy soul was pierced by a sword of sorrow at the sight of the Passion
of thy divine Son. Intercede for me and obtain for me from Jesus...
(State your
intentions)
If it be for His honor and glory and for my good. Amen. O heart
most pure of the Blessed Virgin, Obtain for me from Jesus a pure and humble
heart.
