Little Chaplet of the Five Wounds of Jesus

I.  O my Lord Jesus Christ, I adore the wound in Thy left foot. I thank Thee for having suffered it for me with so much sorrow and with so much love. I compassionate Thy pain, and that of Thine afflicted Mother. And, by the merit of this sacred wound, I pray Thee to grant me the pardon of my sins, of which I repent with all my heart, because they have offended Thine infinite goodness. O sorrowing Mary, pray to Jesus for me.  Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory, etc. 

By all the wounds which Thou didst bear 

With so much love and so much pain, 

Oh, let a sinner's prayer 

Thy mercy, Lord, obtain! 

II.  O my Lord Jesus Christ, I adore the wound in Thy right foot. I thank Thee for having suffered it for me with so much sorrow and with so much love. I compassionate Thy pain, and that of Thine afflicted Mother. And, by the merit of this sacred wound, I pray Thee to give me the strength not to fall into mortal sin for the future, but to persevere in Thy grace unto my death. O sorrowing Mary, pray to Jesus for me.  Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory, etc. 

By all the wounds which Thou didst bear 
With so much love and so much pain, 
Oh, let a sinner's prayer 
Thy mercy, Lord, obtain! 

III. O my Lord Jesus Christ, I adore the wound in Thy left hand. I thank Thee for having suffered it for me with so much sorrow and with so much love. I compassionate Thy pain, and that of Thine afflicted Mother. And, by the merit of this sacred wound, I pray Thee to deliver me from Hell, which I have so often deserved, where I could never love Thee more. O sorrowing Mary, pray to Jesus for me.  Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory, etc. 

By all the wounds which Thou didst bear

V. O my Lord Jesus Christ, I adore the wound in Thy side. I thank Thee for having willed, even after Thy death, to suffer this additional injury, without pain indeed, yet with consummate love. I compassionate Thine afflicted Mother, who alone felt all its pain. And, by the merit of this sacred wound, I pray Thee to bestow upon me the gift of holy love for Thee, that so I may ever love Thee in this life, and in the other, face to face, for all eternity, in Paradise. O sorrowing Mary, pray to Jesus for me.  Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory, etc. 

By all the wounds which Thou didst bear 
With so much love and so much pain, 
Oh, let a sinner's prayer 
Thy mercy, Lord, obtain!
