Through Thine agony and bloody sweat, **

Through Thy holy wounds, **

Through Thy precious blood, **

Through Thy Passion and cross, **

Through Thy bitter death, **

Through Thy glorious resurrection, **

Through Thy marvellous ascension, **

In the Day of Judgment, **

We, poor sinners, beseech Thee, hear us.

That Thou wouldst spare us,

We beseech Thee, hear us. ***

That Thou wouldst pardon us, ***

That Thou wouldst bring us to true penance, ***

That Thou wouldst give us a contrite heart, ***

That Thou wouldst strengthen us in our weakness, ***

That Thou wouldst preserve us in patience, ***

That Thou wouldst relieve our pains, ***

That Thou wouldst restore us to health of body and soul, ***

That Thou wouldst grant us perseverance in good, ***

That Thou wouldst grant us a happy death, ***

That Thou wouldst receive our spirit into Thy hands, ***

That Thou wouldst preserve us from the fire of purgatory, ***

That Thou wouldst bring us to the joys of heaven, ***

Our Father (secretly).

V. And lead us not into temptation,

R. But deliver us from evil. Amen.

V. Save, O Lord, Thy servants.

R. Who hope in Thy mercy.

V. Lord, hear our prayer.

R. And let our cry come unto Thee.

Let us Pray:

O Heavenly Father, have mercy on Thy servant, who is sick. Confirm him [her] in faith, strengthen his [her] hope, fill him [her] with the fire of Thy love. Give him [her] enduring patience, that he [she] may victoriously go through the fight and suffer everything for Thy greater glory and the salvation of his [her] soul. Lessen his [her] pains, forgive him [her] his [her] sins, and bring him [her] to life everlasting. Through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.

A meditation by St Augustine: 

Before Thine eyes, O Lord, we bring our sins, and we compare them with the stripes we have received.

If we examine the evil we have wrought, what we suffer is little, what we deserve is great.

What we have committed is very grievous, what we have suffered is very slight.

We feel the punishment of sin, yet withdraw not from the obstinacy of sinning.

Under Thy lash our inconstancy is visited, but our sinfulness is not changed.

Our suffering soul is tormented, but our neck is not bent.
Our life groans under sorrow, yet amends not in deed.

If Thou spare us, we correct not our ways: if Thou punish, we cannot endure it.

In time of correction we confess our wrongdoing: after Thy visitation we forget that we have wept.

If Thou stretchest forth Thy hand, we promise amendment; if Thou withholdest the sword, we keep not our promise.

If Thou strikest, we cry out for mercy; if Thou sparest, we again provoke Thee to strike

Here we are before Thee, O Lord, confessedly guilty; we know that unless Thou pardon we shall deservedly perish.

Grant then, O almighty Father, without our deserving it, the pardon we ask; Thou Who madest out of nothing those Who ask Thee. Through Christ our Lord. Amen
