Divine Mercy Novena Prayers
Good Friday to Saturday of Easter Week
First Day of the Divine Mercy Novena:
Most
Merciful Jesus, whose very nature it is to have compassion on us and to forgive
us, do not look upon our sins but upon our trust which we place in Your
infinite goodness. Receive us all into the abode of Your Most Compassionate
Heart, and never let us escape from It. We beg this of You by Your love which
unites You to the Father and the Holy Spirit.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon all mankind and especially
upon poor sinners, all enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. For
the sake of His sorrowful Passion show us Your mercy, that we may praise the
omnipotence of Your mercy for ever and ever.
Amen
Second Day of the Divine Mercy Novena:
Most
Merciful Jesus, from whom comes all that is good, increase Your grace in men
and women consecrated to Your service,* that they may perform worthy
works of mercy; and that all who see them may glorify the Father of Mercy who
is in heaven. Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the company of
chosen ones in Your vineyard–upon the souls of priests and religious; and endow
them with the strength of Your blessing. For the love of the Heart of Your Son
in which they are enfolded, impart to them Your power and light, that they may
be able to guide others in the way of salvation and with one voice sing praise
to Your boundless mercy for ages without end.
Amen.
Third Day of the Divine Mercy Novena:
Most
Merciful Jesus, from the treasury of Your mercy, You impart Your graces in
great abundance to each and all. Receive us into the abode of Your Most
Compassionate Heart and never let us escape from It. We beg this grace of You
by that most wonderous love for the heavenly Father with which Your Heart burns
so fiercely.
Eternal
Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon faithful souls, as upon the inheritance of
Your Son. For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, grant them Your blessing and
surround them with Your constant protection. Thus may they never fail in love
or lose the treasure of the holy faith, but rather, with all the hosts of
Angels and Saints, may they glorify Your boundless mercy for endless ages. Amen.
Fourth Day of the Divine Mercy Novena:
Most
compassionate Jesus, You are the Light of the whole world. Receive into the
abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who do not believe in
God and of those who as yet do not know You. Let the rays of Your grace
enlighten them that they, too, together with us, may extol Your wonderful
mercy; and do not let them escape from the abode which is Your Most
Compassionate Heart. Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of
those who do not believe in You, and of those who as yet do not know You, but
who are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Draw them to the
light of the Gospel. These souls do not know what great happiness it is to love
You. Grant that they, too, may extol the generosity of Your mercy for endless
ages. Amen.
Fifth Day of the Divine Mercy Novena:
Most
Merciful Jesus, Goodness Itself, You do not refuse light to those who seek it
of You. Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of
those who have separated themselves from Your Church. Draw them by Your light
into the unity of the Church, and do not let them escape from the abode of Your
Most Compassionate Heart; but bring it about that they, too, come to glorify
the generosity of Your mercy.
Eternal
Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of those who have separated
themselves from Your Son’s Church, who have squandered Your blessings and
misused Your graces by obstinately persisting in their errors. Do not look upon
their errors, but upon the love of Your own Son and upon His bitter Passion,
which He underwent for their sake, since they, too, are enclosed in His Most
Compassionate Heart. Bring it about that they also may glorify Your great mercy
for endless ages. Amen.

Sixth Day of the Divine Mercy Novena:
Most
Merciful Jesus, You yourself have said, “Learn from Me for I am meek and humble
of heart.” Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart all meek and
humble souls and the souls of little children. These souls send all heaven into
ecstasy and they are the heavenly Father’s favorites. They are a sweet-smelling
bouquet before the throne of God; God Himself takes delight in their fragrance.
These souls have a permanent abode in Your Most Compassionate Heart, O Jesus,
and they unceasingly sing out a hymn of love and mercy.
Eternal
Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon meek souls, upon humble souls, and upon
little children who are enfolded in the abode which is the Most Compassionate
Heart of Jesus. These souls bear the closest resemblance to Your Son. Their
fragrance rises from the earth and reaches Your very throne. Father of mercy
and of all goodness, I beg You by the love You bear these souls and by the
delight You take in them: Bless the whole world, that all souls together may
sing out the praises of Your mercy for endless ages. Amen.
Seventh Day of the Divine Mercy Novena:
.Most
Merciful Jesus, whose Heart is Love Itself, receive into the abode of Your Most
Compassionate Heart the souls of those who particularly extol and venerate the
greatness of Your mercy. These souls are mighty with the very power of God
Himself. In the midst of all afflictions and adversities they go forward,
confident of Your mercy; and united to You, O Jesus, they carry all mankind on
their shoulders. These souls will not be judged severely, but Your mercy will
embrace them as they depart from this life.
Eternal
Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls who glorify and venerate Your
greatest attribute, that of Your fathomless mercy, and who are enclosed in the
Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls are a living Gospel; their hands
are full of deeds of mercy, and their hearts, overflowing with joy, sing a
canticle of mercy to You, O Most High! I beg You O God: Show them Your mercy
according to the hope and trust they have placed in You. Let there be
accomplished in them the promise of Jesus, who said to them that during their
life, but especially at the hour of death, the souls who will venerate this
fathomless mercy of His, He, Himself, will defend as His glory. Amen.

Eighth
Day of the Divine Mercy Novena:
Most
Merciful Jesus, You Yourself have said that You desire mercy; so I bring into
the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls in Purgatory, souls who
are very dear to You, and yet, who must make retribution to Your justice. May
the streams of Blood and Water which gushed forth from Your Heart put out the
flames of Purgatory, that there, too, the power of Your mercy may be
celebrated.
Eternal
Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls suffering in Purgatory, who are
enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. I beg You, by the sorrowful
Passion of Jesus Your Son, and by all the bitterness with which His most sacred
Soul was flooded: Manifest Your mercy to the souls who are under Your just
scrutiny. Look upon them in no other way but only through the Wounds of Jesus,
Your dearly beloved Son; for we firmly believe that there is no limit to Your
goodness and compassion. Amen.
Ninth Day of the Divine Mercy Novena:
Most
compassionate Jesus, You are Compassion Itself. I bring lukewarm souls into the
abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart. In this fire of Your pure love, let
these tepid souls, who, like corpses, filled You with such deep loathing, be
once again set aflame. O Most Compassionate Jesus, exercise the omnipotence of
Your mercy and draw them into the very ardor of Your love, and bestow upon them
the gift of holy love, for nothing is beyond Your power.
Eternal
Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon lukewarm souls who are nonetheless enfolded
in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Father of Mercy, I beg You by the
bitter Passion of Your Son and by His three-hour agony on the Cross: Let them,
too, glorify the abyss of Your mercy. Amen.
