O GOD, Who makest the unworthy worthy, sinners righteous, impure pure: Work in me true repentance for my sins and misdeeds, for my daily and countless transgressions. Through faith in Thy Son, make me worthy to receive the sacrament of Thy Son’s Body and Blood for the cleansing of my soul and body of all shame and sin; through Him Who offered Himself to Thee, O God Father, the perfect propitiatory Sacrifice, Who is our sinless and only Mediator, through the High Priest, Jesus Christ, Thy dear Son. Amen. (adapted, Oremus, 1925, p.141).

TRUSTING only in Thy mercy, O Lord, Jesus, I draw near: sick that Thou mayest heal me, hungry that Thou mayest feed me, thirsty that Thou mayest give me drink, poor and needy that Thou mayest relieve me, desolate to my kind Comforter.

But whence is this to me that Thou shouldest come unto me and give Thyself to me? How shall I appear before Thee, how canst Thou come to me a sinner?

Thou knowest, O good Lord, that I have no good thing in me to deserve this mercy: I confess my unworthiness, I acknowledge Thy goodness, I give Thee thanks for Thy mercy, I praise Thee for Thine exceeding love.

Since, therefore, it is Thy will, since Thou hast said, “Come unto Me,” I come, O Lord; let not my sins move Thee to reject me; be it unto me according to Thy Word; for there is none other Name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved, but Thine, O most blessed Lord and Saviour.

And whatsoever is wanting unto me, do Thou, O most merciful Jesus, vouchsafe to supply out of the riches of Thy merits, Thy pains and labors, Thy bitter death, whereby Thou hast redeemed me, Who livest and reignest with the Father and the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen. (Oremus, 1925, p.143).

O LORD JESUS, I am not worthy that Thou shouldest enter my sinful heart, but Thou knowest my great poverty and need. I long for Thy presence with all my heart, therefore, feed, comfort, strengthen my poor soul; Who livest and reignest with the Father and the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen. (Oremus, 1925, p.147).

O GOD the HOLY GHOST, have mercy upon me, be gracious unto me, and grant that I receive this holy sacrament worthily, that through it my weak faith may be strengthened, my cold heart kindled with love, my troubled conscience comforted, my hope freshened, my sinful life bettered, and finally be saved. Amen. (Oremus, 1925, p.147).

O GOD the SON, SAVIOUR of the world, have mercy upon me, and let me be a loving guest at Thy holy supper. Give me what Thou hast promised and let me take what Thou hast appointed for me. Amen. (Oremus, 1925, p.146).

O GOD the FATHER in heaven, have mercy upon me, be gracious unto me Thy child, who in childlike fear, am about to approach Thy holy altar. Let me partake of Thy heavenly feast, as Thou hast prepared it for me, to the salvation of my soul. Amen. (Oremus, 1925, p.146).

THE LORD preserve my going out and coming in from this time forth and for evermore. Amen.  GLORY be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost. Amen. (Oremus, 1925, p.154).

JESUS, Master, do Thou meet us while we walk in the way, and long to reach the heavenly country, so that following Thy light, we may keep the way of righteousness, and never wander away into the horrible darkness of this world’s night, while Thou, Who art the Way, the Truth, and the Life, art shining within us; Who livest and reignest with the Father and the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen. (Oremus, 1925, p.154-155).

O MERCIFUL Lord, Who understandest the groaning of the contrite heart before it is expressed, make us, we pray Thee, the temple of the Paraclete, to the end that we may be crowned with the shield of celestial mercy; through Jesus Christ, Thy Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with the Father and the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen. (Oremus, 1925, p.26).

GRANT, O Lord, that as I have now celebrated Thy worship (and received Thy holy sacrament), so I may likewise, by Thy grace, do honor to Thee in all my daily life; through Jesus Christ, Thy Son, our Lord, who livest and reignest with the Father and the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen.  (Oremus, 1925, p.152).
