MEMORARE to JESUS, MARY, JOSEPH
REMEMBER, O Merciful Jesus,
Immaculate Mary and Glorious
St. Joseph, that no one has ever had
recourse to Thy Protection or implored
Thy assistance without obtaining relief.
Animated with a like confidence but
weighed down by my sins, I prostrate
myself before Thee. O reject not my
petitions, but graciously hear and grant
them. Amen.
BENEDICTION PRAYER
O JESUS, Who hast said, “Come to Me,
and I will give you rest,” we have come
heavily burdened with the cares and
temptations of life. Refresh us then,
before we depart, with Thy Holy
Benediction, so that carrying our cross
with new hope and courage till the end
of life’s pilgrimage, we may be ready
to hear from Thine Own Lips, those
words of final Benediction, “Come,
blessed of My Father, take possession
of the kingdom prepared for you from
the foundation of the world.” Amen.
Tantum ergo Sacraméntum,
Venerémur cérnui:
Et antíquum documéntum
Novo cedat, rítui:
Præstet fides suppleméntum
Sénsuum deféctui.
Genitóri, Genitóque,
Laus et jubilátio:
Salus, honor, virtus quoque,
Sit et benediction:
Procédenti ab utróque
Compar sit laudatio, Amen.
(Priest) Panem de cælo præstitisti eis.
(People) Omne delectaméntum in se
habéntem.
AT the Blessing look at Jesus and say:
“My Lord and my God”
(Indul. 7 years and 280 days), or
“May Thy Blessing come down upon
me, O Lord, in the Name of the
Father, ...”
RELIC of THE TRUE CROSS is used at
end of the service - a piece of the True
Cross upon which Jesus shed His
Precious Blood. As the priest blesses
you at the Altar rail, say privately:
“Pour forth, we beseech Thee, O Lord,
Thy grace into our hearts, that we
to whom the Incarnation of Christ,
Thy Son, was made known by the
message of an Angel, may by His
Passion and Cross be brought to the
glory of His Resurrection, through
the same Christ Our Lord. Amen.”
SING: “Holy God,
We Praise Thy Name.”
