Intro Prayer
Prayer to the Most Holy Name of Jesus (by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux)
Jesus, the very thought of Thee
With sweetness fills the breast!
Yet sweeter far Thy face to see
And in Thy presence rest.
No voice can sing, no heart can frame,
Nor can the memory find,
A sweeter sound than Jesus’ name,
The Savior of mankind.
O hope of every contrite heart!
0 joy of all the meek!
To those who fall, how kind Thou art!
How good to those who seek!
But what to those who find? Ah! this
Nor tongue nor pen can show The love of Jesus, what it is,
None but His loved ones know.
Jesus! our only hope be Thou,
As Thou our prize shalt be,
In Thee be all our glory now,
And through eternity.
Amen.
The Memorare
Remember O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided.
Inspired with this confidence, I fly to thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother.
To thee do I come; before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.
Concluding Prayer
O God, who made of the Abbot Saint Bernard a man consumed with zeal for Your house and a light shining and burning in Your Church, grant, through his intercession, that we may be on fire with the same spirit and walk always as children of light.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, who lives and reigns with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
Our Father
Hail Mary
Glory Be
St Bernard, pray for us!
