Lord, have mercy. Christ, have mercy.
Lord, have mercy. Christ, hear us. Christ, graciously hear us.

God the Father of heaven, have mercy on us.
God the Holy Spirit…
Holy Trinity, one God…
Living Bread that came down from heaven…
Hidden God and Savior…
Wheat of the elect…
Wine of which virgins are the fruit…
Bread of fatness and royal dainties…
Perpetual Sacrifice…
Clean oblation…
Lamb without spot…
Most pure Feast…
Food of Angels…
Hidden Manna…
Memorial of the wonders of God…
Supersubstantial Bread…
Word made flesh…
Sacred Host…
Mystery of faith…
Most high and adorable Sacrament…
Most holy of all sacrifices…
True Propitiation for the living and the dead…
Heavenly Antidote against the poison of sin…
Most wonderful of all miracles…
Most holy commemoration of the Passion of Christ…
Gift transcending all fullness…
Special memorial of divine love…
Affluence of divine bounty…
Most august and holy mystery…
Medicine of immortality…
Tremendous and life-giving Sacrament…

Spiritual sweetness tasted in its proper source…
Refreshment of holy souls…
Viaticum of those who die in the Lord…
Pledge of future glory…

Be merciful, spare us, O Lord.
Be merciful, graciously hear us, O Lord.

From an unworthy reception of Your Body and Blood, O Lord, deliver us.
From the lust of the flesh…
From the lust of the eyes…
From the pride of life…
From every occasion of sin…
Through the desire by which You desired to eat this Passover with Your disciples…
Through the profound humility by which You washed their feet…
Through that ardent charity by which You instituted this divine Sacrament…
Through Your precious Blood which You have left us on our altars…
Through the Five Wounds of this Your Most Holy Body which You received for us,

We sinners, we beseech You, hear us.
That You would preserve and increase our faith, reverence, and devotion toward this Sacrament…
That You would conduct us, through a true confession of our sins, to a
frequent reception of the holy Eucharist…
That You would deliver us from all heresy, evil, and blindness of heart…
That You would impart to us the precious and heavenly fruits of this Most Holy Sacrament…
That at the hour of death You would strengthen and defend us by this heavenly Viaticum…

Son of God, Lamb of God, You take away the sins of the world, spare us, O Lord.
Lamb of God, You take away the sins of the world, graciously hear us, O Lord.
Lamb of God, You take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us, O Lord.

Christ, hear us. Christ, graciously hear us.

V. You gave them bread from heaven,
R. Containing in itself all sweetness.

Let us pray.

O God, in this wonderful Sacrament, You left us a memorial of Your passion. Grant us so to venerate the sacred mysteries of Your Body and Blood that we may ever continue to feel within us the blessed fruit of Your redemption. You live and reign forever and ever. Amen.
