Act of Reparation to the Precious
Blood
Adorable Jesus, Lamb without spot, Who ceasest
not to pour forth Thy Divine Blood in order to appease the justice of
Thy
Heavenly Father; innocent and thrice holy Victim, who hast paid for the
guilty a ransom infinite in merit and in sacrifice, I come before Thee
to render thanksgiving for Thy benefits to us, and to make some poor
amends
for the crimes committed upon earth. Lord, how small, alas, are the
number
of those who do Thee honor, and how numerous, on the contrary, are they
who despise and trample under foot Thy Precious Blood! How many daily
satiate
Thee with the opprobrium of Calvary!
O Jesus, by the potent voice of Thy Divine Blood,
and in the name of the infinite merits of Thy heart-rending Passion, I
implore Thy mercy, not for myself alone, but for the many souls who,
resisting
the call of grace, refuse to seek, at the foot of the Cross, or under
the
shadow of the Tabernacle, pardon and life. Pity, gentle Jesus, pity all
these; pity also those who dare to approach Thee all uncleansed, and to
mingle Thine adorable Blood with the mire of their sins. Yes, pity,
mercy,
pardon! We implore these graces in the name of Thy Blood and Thine
Eucharist!
Most holy Mary, bless me! Take my heart, hold
it fast, and keep it in perpetual adoration before the altar; that
there
it may ever be, glorifying Jesus, and making reparation for the
outrages
offered to His Blood.
