DAY THREE – NOVENA of DEVOTION to the PRECIOUS BLOOD of JESUS

Opening Prayer for each Day:

Grant me the grace to know You, to love You
and to be truly sorry that I have offended You.
I ask this grace by Your Precious Blood –
By that Precious Blood, which bathed Your Sacred Body
and trickled down to the ground in the Garden of Olives.
By that Precious Blood, which poured forth
from Your Sacred Body during the scourging.
By that Precious Blood, which which covered
Your Sacred Face when You were crowned with thorns.
By that Precious Blood, which burst
from Your hands and feet on Calvary.
By that Precious Blood, which came forth from Your Sacred Heart
after Your death.
By that Precious Blood, which we drink
in Holy Communion and of which You said:
“He who feeds on My Flesh
and drinks My Blood has life eternal.”
Amen.

Day Three : Jesus Sheds Blood in the Agony in the Garden

Final prayer:

Eternal Father,
we offer You the Blood of Jesus
shed in the Garden of Olives.
Jesus Christ, Your Son,
during the days of His mortal life,
presented prayers and supplications
with great tears and sadness
and the shedding of His Precious Blood.
As Your suffering Son and Servant,
He humbly obeyed Your Will.
Give us, oh Father,
through the Precious Blood of Jesus,
shed in the Garden of Olives,
the strength and perseverance to fulfill Your Will.
Through the same Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen

Our Father …
Glory be …
V. Praise and thanksgiving be evermore to Jesus.
R. Who by His Blood has saved us.
V. Glory to the Blood of Jesus!
R. Now and forever. Amen
