Act of Dedication of
the Human Race to Jesus Christ the King
Most sweet Jesus,
Redeemer of the human race, look down upon us humbly prostrate before You. We
are Yours, and Yours we wish to be; but to be more surely united with You,
behold each one of us freely consecrates himself today to your Most Sacred
Heart. Many Indeed have never known You; many, too, despising Your precepts,
have rejected You. Have mercy of them all, most merciful Jesus, and draw them
to Your Sacred Heart.
Be King, O Lord,
not only of the faithful who have never forsaken You, but also of the prodigal
children who have abandoned You; grant that they may quickly return to their
Father's house, lest they die of wretchedness and hunger.
Be King of those
who are deceived by erroneous opinions, or whom discord keeps aloof, and call
them back to the harbor of truth and the unity of faith, so that soon there may
be but one flock and one Shepherd.
Grant, O Lord, to
Your Church assurance of freedom and immunity from harm; give tranquility of
order to all nations; make the earth resound from pole to pole with one cry:
Praise to the divine Heart that wrought our salvation; to it be glory and honor
forever. Amen.
