Our Lady  of  the  Sacred  Heart,  pray  for  us.

Indulgence of  100  days,  each  time. — Pius  X,  July  9, 1904.

esus! ever-loving Saviour, Thou didst  live  and  die  for  me; Living, I  will  live  to  love  Thee, Dying, I  will  die  for  Thee. Jesus! Jesus! By Thy  life  and  death  of  sorrow. Help me  in  my  agony.

When the  last  dread  hour  approaching Fills my  guilty  soul  with  fear, All my  sins  rise  up  before  me, All my  virtues  disappear. Jesus ! Jesus ! Turn not  Thou  in  anger  from  me; Mary ! Joseph ! then be  near. Kindest Jesus  ! Thou wert  standing By Thy  foster-father's  bed, While Thy  mother,  softly  praying, Held her  dying  Joseph's  head. Jesus ! Jesus! By that  death  so  calm  and  holy, Soothe me  in  that  hour  of  dread.

Mary! thou canst  not  forsake  me, Virgin mother  undefiled! Thou didst  not  abandon  Jesus, Dying, tortured,  and  reviled. Jesus ! Jesus ! Send Thy  Mother  to  console  me; Mary! help thy  guilty  child.
