The DIVINE MERCY CHAPLET
Opening Prayer
You died Jesus,
But the source of life flowed out for souls
and the ocean of mercy
opened up for the whole world.
O Fountain of Life,
immeasurable Divine Mercy.
Cover the whole world
and empty yourself out upon us.
O Blood and Water
which flowed out from the heart of Jesus
as a fountain of mercy for us,
we trust in you.
Holy God, Holy Might One,
Holy Immortal One,
have mercy on us
and on the whole world. (3x)
Jesus, King of Mercy,
we trust in You!
The Our Father
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name; thy kingdom
come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we
forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil, Amen.
The Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou
amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of
our death, Amen.
The Apostles’ Creed
1
We believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the
Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died and was buried; He descended into hell; on the
third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and
is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty; from there He
will come to judge the living and the dead. We believe in the Holy
Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the
forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting.
AMEN.

Concluding Doxology
Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One,
have mercy on us and on the whole world. (3X)
Concluding Prayer
Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion
inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us, that
in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but
with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is
Love and Mercy itself.
AMEN.
