LITANY OF THE TWELVE PROMISES OF THE MOST SACRED HEART OF JESUS

Heart of Jesus, burning with love for us:

R.Inflame our hearts with love of Thee.

O Heart of Jesus, behold us prostrate before Thee, to adore Thee, to praise Thee, to thank Thee, to make reparation for our past faults, and to consecrate ourselves to Thy love.

Bearing in mind Thy magnificent Promises to those who honor and love Thy Sacred Heart, we say to Thee with the utmost confidence:

• Heart of Jesus, give us all the graces necessary for our state in life. Thou have promised it O Jesus.
• Heart of Jesus, grant peace to our families. Thou have promised it O Jesus.

• Heart of Jesus, console us in all our sorrows. Thou have promised it O Jesus.

• Heart of Jesus, be our safe Refuge during life, and above all at the hour of our death. Thou have promised it O Jesus.

• Heart of Jesus, pour abundant blessings on all our labors. 

Thou have promised it O Jesus.

• Heart of Jesus, be for sinners the Source and Infinite Ocean of Mercy. Thou have promised it O Jesus.

• Heart of Jesus, make indifferent souls fervent. Thou have promised it O Jesus.

• Heart of Jesus, make fervent souls advance rapidly to perfection. 

Thou have promised it O Jesus.

• Heart of Jesus, bless the houses where Thine image is exposed and honored. 

Thou have promised it O Jesus.

• Heart of Jesus, give to priests the power of touching the most hardened hearts. 

Thou have promised it O Jesus.

• Heart of Jesus, engrave on Thy Heart forever the names of those who propagate this devotion.

Thou have promised it O Jesus.

• Heart of Jesus, give those who receive Holy Communion nine consecutive First Fridays, the grace of final repentance, that they may not die under Thy displeasure, but, strengthened by the reception of the Sacraments, may Thy Heart be their secure refuge at their last hour. 

Thou have promised it O Jesus.

O sweetest Heart of Jesus, I implore:

R. That I may ever love Thee more and more.

Lord Jesus, remember the promises which, in the infinite mercy of Thy Divine Heart, Thou didst make to Saint Margaret Mary. Be the Protector of our life, the Strength of our weakness, the Repairer of our faults, the Completion of our virtues, our Refuge at the hour of death. Amen.

O God, Who hast prepared for those who love Thee such good things as pass man’s understanding: pour into our hearts such love toward Thee, that, loving Thee in and above all things, we may obtain Thy promises, which exceed all that we can desire. Through Jesus Christ Our Lord. Amen.
