O Blood and Water, which
gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a Fount of Mercy for us, I trust in You. (187)

You Yourself, Jesus,
surely out of love for us, underwent such a terrible Passion. Your Father's justice would
have been propitiated with a single sigh from You, and all Your self-abasement is solely
the work of Your mercy and Your inconceivable love ... At the end of Your death on the
Cross, You bestowed upon us eternal life; allowing Your most holy side to be opened, You
opened an inexhaustible spring of mercy for us, giving us Your dearest possession, the
Blood and Water from Your Heart. Such is the omnipotence of Your mercy. From It all grace
flows to us. (1747)

O Jesus, eternal Truth,
our Life, I call upon You and beg Your mercy for poor sinners. O sweetest Heart of my
Lord, full of pity and unfathomable mercy, I plead with You for poor sinners. O Most
Sacred Heart, Fount of Mercy from which gush forth rays of inconceivable graces upon the
entire human race, I beg of You light for poor sinners. O Jesus, be mindful of Your own
bitter Passion and do not permit the loss of souls redeemed at so dear a price of Your
most precious Blood.
O Jesus, when I consider the great price of
Your Blood, I rejoice at Its immensity, for one drop alone would have been enough for the
salvation of all sinners. (...) Oh, what immense joy burns in my heart when I contemplate
Your incomprehensible goodness, O Jesus! I desire to bring all sinners to Your feet that
they may glorify Your mercy throughout endless ages.
(72)

O Jesus, stretched out
upon the cross, I implore You, give me the grace of doing faithfully the most holy will of
Your Father, in all things, always and everywhere. And when this Will of God will seem to
me very harsh and difficult to fulfill, it is then I beg You, Jesus, may power and
strength flow upon me from Your wounds, and may my lips keep repeating, "Your will be
done, O Lord".
O Savior of the world, Lover of man's
salvation, who in such terrible torment and pain, forgot Yourself to think only of the
salvation of souls, O most compassionate Jesus, grant me the grace to forget myself that I
may live totally for souls, helping You in the work of salvation, according to the most
holy will of Your Father. (1265)

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. (1319)
