because, for love of the Father, in the Holy Spirit,

You have, by your Cross, redeemed the world.

I thank you for your love for me,

for having suffered so much pain,

taking upon yourself my sins,

sins, which now I repent with all my heart.

To the wound in his right hand

Lord Jesus Crucified,

In union with Mary and with the angels and saints,

I adore the wound in your right hand.

I beg You to bless the Church, your People,

to bless the Pope and the Pastors

who are called to preach the Gospel

and to celebrate the Eucharist.

To the wound in his left hand

Lord Jesus Crucified,

In union with Mary and with the angels and saints,

I adore the wound in your left hand.

I pray for those who do not know your love,

for those who refuse it,

and for all who don't want to be

reconciled with You.

To the wound in his right foot

Lord Jesus Crucified,

In union with Mary and with the angels and saints,

I adore the wound in your right foot.

I pray for all Christians

and for persons who are consecrated to You;

that all may truly live their vocation to holiness

and that your love may reign in every family.

To the wound in his left foot

Lords Jesus Crucified,

In union with Mary and with the angels and saints,

I adore the wound in your left foot.

I pray for all who have died,

and for all who are victims of hatred and violence.

May they be purified by your love and

be united with You for ever.

To the wound in his side

Lord Jesus Crucified,

In union with Mary and with the angels and saints,

I adore the wound in your side.

I pary that humanity may find in your pierced

heart the love which saves,

the strength to forgive and to reconcile

and the comfort in suffering.

and Mother of us all, pray for us.

In union with You,

I offer the Father, in the Holy Spirit,

Your bleeding and glorious wounds.

May I see in You, hanging on the Cross,

the face of God.

And may I yield to your love,

loving my brothers and sisters

as You have loved them,

pledged to the ideals of justice, unity and peace!
