Prayer before any Good Works

(Whatsoever you do in word or in work, do all in
the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.”
[Col. 3:17])

O Jesus, sweet Jesus, O Jesus divine,
My life and my death unto Thee I resign.
Every action of mine shall Thy patronage claim;
For whatever I do shall be done in Thy name.

(Renew your good intention frequently during the
day and especially as the beginning
of any important work or duty by some short
ejaculatory prayer, for example:)

All in the name of Jesus.

All for the glory of God.

All for Jesus.

All for the Sacred Heart of Jesus through the immaculate
heart of Mary.

In the name of the Father, +
and of the Son,
and of the Holy Ghost.

Amen.

Come Holy Spirit,
enlighten my mind and direct my will,
that I may do what is pleasing to Thee
and conductive to my salvation.

Prayer to Our Lady of Perpetual Help #7

Behold, O Mother of Perpetual Help, at thy feet a wretched sinner, who has recourse to thee and trusts in thee. O Mother of mercy, have pity on me; I hear all men call thee the refuge and hope of sinners: be therefore my refuge and my hope. Help me for the love of Jesus Christ: hold out thy hand to a fallen wretch, who commends himself to thee and dedicates ... continue reading
