3 p.m. DIVINE MERCY CHAPLET

THREE O’CLOCK PRAYER

You expired Jesus, but the source of life gushed forth for souls, and the Ocean of Mercy opened up for the whole world.

O Fountain of Life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelope the whole world and empty Yourself out upon us.

V. O Blood and Water which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of mercy for us
R. I trust in You.

THE OUR FATHER

Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be Thy name;
Thy kingdom come;
Thy will be done on earth
as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation;
but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

THE HAIL MARY

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee;
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners,
now, and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

THE APOSTLES’ CREED

I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
He descended into hell.

On the third day He rose again from the dead.
He ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of God
the Father Almighty;
from there He will come to judge
the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy Catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting.

Amen.

BEFORE EACH DECADE

Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood,
Soul and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son,
Our Lord Jesus Christ,
in atonement for our sins,
and those of the whole world.

———

EACH BEAD IN THE DECADE

For the sake of His sorrowful Passion,
Have mercy on us, and on the whole world.

———

AFTER THE LAST DECADE

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One,
Have mercy on us, and on the whole world.

FINAL PRAYER

Eternal God, in Whom mercy is endless
and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible;
look kindly upon us, and increase Your mercy in us,
that in difficult moments we might not despair
nor become despondent,
but with great confidence
submit ourselves to Your Holy Will,
which is Love and Mercy itself.

Amen
