Our Morning Offering – 4 December – “The Month of the Divine Infancy and the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary”
Daily Prayers to the Infant Jesus
O Almighty God, in the form of a little Child!
Make me worthy to meditate upon
Thy Greatness and Power,
Thy Goodness and Mercy
and Thy Majesty as God and Man.
O Divine Infant!
With the most profound reverence,
I contemplate Thy Divine Countenance,
shedding its gentle and forgiving Light like the sun,
on good and bad.
Deign, O friendly Eyes of my Jesus,
to cast one look of grace upon me
and to give to my eyes, sincere tears of repentance
that on my judgement day, they need not fear
Thy look of righteous anger.
O Sweetest Jesus!
Fervent with admiration,
I praise Thy Holy Lips, filled with heavenly wisdom
and uttering words of grace for the remission of sin.
Lest, however, Thy Divine Lips might one day
be forced to pronounce the sentence
of condemnation upon me on account of my own words,
I beseech Thee, O Lord,
place a seal upon my lips, so that they may never
be opened to utter an uncharitable opinion
or a sinful word; may I ever preserve Thy Truth
and Thy Love in my heart and upon my tongue.
Amen
