Act of Contrition

O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended you, and I detest all my sins, because of Your just punishments, but most of all because they offend You, my God, who are all-good and deserving of all my love.

I firmly resolve, with the help of Your grace, to sin no more and to avoid the near occasion of sin.

Act of Divine Presence

My God, I firmly believe that Thou art everywhere present and seest all things.

Thou seest my nothingness, my inconstancy, my sinfulness.

Thou seest me in all my actions; Thou seest me in this my meditation.

I bow down before Thee, and worship Thy Divine majesty with my whole being.

Cleanse my heart from all vain, wicked, and distracting thoughts.

Enlighten my understanding, and inflame my will, that I may pray with reverence, attention and devotion.

Amen.

Act of Charity Before Communion

O Most Sweet Saviour, Jesus Christ, how great was Thy love, which drew Thee from the bosom of the Father
to this vale of tears, to take our flesh and endure infinite miseries and wrongs, yea, even the death of the Cross, and that only for us miserable sinners and for our salvation.

O how great was Thy love!

Thou mightest have condemned us, and Thou didst rather choose to save us:

we were guilty, and Thou, the sinless One, didst endure our punishment to set us free.

Out of love it was that Thou camest down to take our flesh; and when about to depart from this world to the Father, Thou didst leave to us this Sacrament as a pledge of Thy love, that after a new and wondrous manner Thou mightest abide with us for ever; Thou whose delights are to be with the children of men.

O Lord how worthy art Thou of Love, who dost so much for love of us!

Wherefore I will love Thee, O Lord, my Strength, my Refuge, and my Deliverer.

O God, Thou art true Love!

He that dwelleth in love dwelleth in Thee.

I desire to receive Thee in this Sacrament, that I may be more firmly united with Thee in the bond of love.

Who shall separate me from the love of Christ my Saviour?
O that neither life, nor death, nor any creature may have power to do so.

Act of Contrition

O Lord Jesus, lover of our souls, who, for the great love with which You loved us, willed not the death of a sinner, but rahter that he should be converted and live, I grieve from the bottom of my heart that I offended You, my most loving Father and Redeemer, to whom all sin is infinitely displeasing, who so loved that You she Your blood for me, and endured the bitter torments of a most cruel death.

O my God, my inifinite Goodness, would that I never offended You. Pardon me, O Lord Jesus, as I most humbly implore Your mercy. Have pity on a sinner for whom Your blood pleads before the face of the Father.

O merciful and forgiving Lord, for the love of Your, I forgive all who have ever offended me. I firmly resolve to forsake and flee from all sins, and to avoid the occasions of them, to confess, in bitterness of spirit, all those sins which I committed against Your divine goodness, and to Love You, O my God, for Your own sake, above all things and for ever.

Grant me grace so to do, most gracious Lord Jesus.

Act of Adoration

I ADORE Thee profoundly, O my Jesus, in Thy sacramental form; I acknowledge Thee to be true God and true Man, and by this act of adoration I intend to atone for the coldness of so many Christians who pass before Thy churches and sometimes before the very Tabernacle in which Thou art pleased to remain at all hours with loving impatience to give Thyself to Thy faithful people, and do not so much as bend the knee before Thee, and who, by their indifference proclaim that they grow weary of this heavenly manna, like the people of Israel in the wilderness.

I offer Thee in reparation for this grievous negligence,
the Most Precious Blood which Thou didst shed from Thy five wounds, and especially from Thy sacred Side, and entering therein, I repeat a thousand times with true recollection of spirit:

O Sacrament most holy!
O Sacrament divine!
All praise and all thanksgiving
be every moment Thine.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be
