Be merciful, spare them O Lord.

Be merciful, hear them, O Lord.

Be merciful, free them O Lord.


From Thy wrath, free them O Lord.

From the danger of death, free them O Lord.

From a bad death, free them O Lord.

From the punishments of Hell, free them O Lord.


From every evil, free them O Lord.

From the power of the devil, free them O Lord.

By Thy Nativity, free them O Lord.

By Thy Cross and Passion, free them O Lord.

By Thy Death and Burial, free them O Lord.

By Thy glorious Resurrection, free them O Lord.

By Thy wonderful Ascension, free them O Lord.

By the grace of the Holy Spirit, the Paraclete, free them O Lord.

In the Day of Judgment, free them O Lord.

We sinners, we ask Thee, hear us.

That you spare them, we ask Thee, hear us.


Lord have mercy.

Christ have mercy.

Lord have mercy.


From the Manuel de l’archiconfrérie du Cœur Agonisant de Jésus, 1868, by Fr. Marin de Boylesve, s.j., with ecclesiastical approbation of Blessed Pope Pius IX.
