I fly to Your Mercy, Compassionate God, Who alone are good. Although my misery is great and my offenses are many, I trust in Your Mercy because You are the God of Mercy, and it has never been heard of in all ages, nor do Heaven or Earth remember, that a soul trusting in Your Mercy has been disappointed.

PRAYER OF CONSECRATION TO THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY

(+) Lord God, Beginning and End of all, Who is All in All. Creator of Life and of every good thing, we are Your children and You desire us to be with You. By Your Great Mercy, accept the voice that we rise to heaven for this consecration. May You let us approach Our Lady to consecrate ourselves through her.
