3 O’CLOCK DIVINE MERCY CHAPLET PRAYER
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Opening Prayer;
You expired, Jesus, but the source of life gushed forth for souls,
and the ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world. O Fount of Life, unfathomable Divine
Mercy, envelop the whole world and empty Yourself out upon us.
[3. Repeat three times]
V: O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of mercy for us,
R: I trust in You!
V: Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be
done on earth as it is in heaven.
R: Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those
who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, Amen.
V: Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and
blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
R: Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death,
Amen.
V: I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His
only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered
under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; He descended into hell; on the third
day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of
God the Father almighty; from there He will come to judge the living and the dead.
R: I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the
forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
For the Five Decades;
V: Eternal Father, I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity
of Your Dearly Beloved Son,
Our Lord, Jesus Christ,
R: in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.
[Repeat 10 times]
V: For the sake of His sorrowful Passion,
R: have mercy on us and on the whole world.
[Repeat 3 times]
V: Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One,
R: have mercy on us and on the whole world.
Let us pray:
Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless
and the treasury of compassion — inexhaustible,
look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us,
that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent,
but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will,
which is Love and Mercy itself.
V: We ask this through Christ Our Lord,
R: Amen
