Prayer

Exalted and Almighty God, incomparable goodness! You wanted to show the people your infinite love; and you sent your only Son to become man through the Holy Spirit in the most pure womb of the Virgin Mary; and it was also your will that Saint Joseph, the holy spouse of the Virgin Mary, would raise and be the foster father of your radiant Son who became man. We beseech you, Lord, that you be pleased to look upon the deeds of Jesus, Mary and Joseph; and that you forgive us our sins; because we are truly sorry for having offended you on account of your unsurpassable goodness and mercy which we truly appreciate. We repent here before you, and we beseech you that our prayers rise there to the heights of your throne like pleasing incense; and that you be
pleased to listen once again to the pleas of Jesus, Mary and Joseph to whom we now make this novena; and that you would bestow on us your mercy; and that we be firm in loving you like your good servants in life and in death, and there, where there is much sorrow for our sins, we can say: Jesus, Mary and Joseph; and we shall praise and exalt you in heaven where you are together with your Son and the Holy Spirit, living and reigning for all eternity. Amen.

O Good Jesus, loving father of souls, who grieves over faults, when people fall into sin, and who became man in the most pure womb of the spotless Virgin, and who was born in a cave for animals, and suffered and died in place of the people. We pray to you, most sweet Jesus, that you remember the blood you spilled when they cut your flesh in your infancy, and also your obedience to your Most Holy Mother Mary and your foster father Saint Joseph; and that you humble us interiorly, and that we be obedient to the will of God, and joyfully obey the sweet yoke of your commandments; because if we are your servants in life and death, we will say with great repentance: Jesus, Mary and Joseph, and we will obtain the death of those whose way is righteous, and enter the eternal bliss of heaven; and now grant us what we ask you in this novena if it be for your glory and the good of our souls. Amen.

Now stir up in yourself your trust in Jesus, Mary and Joseph; and ask interiorly the special grace you are trying to obtain in this novena. When finished, repeat.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph, I give you my heart and my soul.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph, defend me when I am dying.

O Good Jesus, loving father of souls, who grieves over faults, when people fall into sin, and who became man in the most pure womb of the spotless Virgin, and who was born in a cave for animals, and suffered and died in place of the people. We pray to you, most sweet Jesus, that you remember the blood you spilled when they cut your flesh in your infancy, and also your obedience to your Most Holy Mother Mary and your foster father Saint Joseph; and that you humble us interiorly, and that we be obedient to the will of God, and joyfully obey the sweet yoke of your commandments; because if we are your servants in life and death, we will say with great repentance: Jesus, Mary and Joseph, and we will obtain the death of those whose way is righteous, and enter the eternal bliss of heaven; and now grant us what we ask you in this novena if it be for your glory and the good of our souls.

Hail Mary, Spouse of God the Holy Spirit, ever-virgin after having given birth, aflame and shining in the fire of divine love, you ended your sojourn here on earth with the most holy and most peaceful death; and you rose again on the third day; and you rose into heaven bringing your body and soul, accompanied by Jesus your love, and you rejoiced at the singing and praises of the company of angels. We beseech you, most compassionate Mary that you recall your holy departure and joyful crowning, and that you enable us to follow you; and we shall be living on earth shining in the love of Jesus. We offer you and your most pure spouse Saint Joseph this novena, the small and useless efforts of our souls; and we shall hope that you will be our mother and defend us against the works and temptations of the world; and that you come to us at our death; and that we overcome that which harms us and we shall repent and say: Jesus, Mary and Joseph, and we shall obtain the joy of those who sing your praises in heaven; and that you give us now what we ask of you in this novena, if it be for your glory and the good of our souls.
