Lord have mercy, etc.
Jesus meek and humble of Heart, listen to my prayers, etc.
From the desire of being esteemed,
From the desire of being known,
From the desire of being praised,
From the desire of being honoured,
From the desire of being preferred,
From the desire of being consulted,
From the desire of being approved,
From the desire of being spared,
O Jesus, Deliver me.
From the fear of being humbled,
From the fear of being despised,
From the fear of being rebuked,
From the fear of being calumniated,
From the fear of being forgotten,
From the fear of being reviled,
From the fear of being ill-treated,
From the fear of being injured,
O Jesus, Deliver me.
O Mary, Mother of the humble,
St. Joseph, patron of the humble,
St. Michael, who first crushed pride,
St. Francis, imitator of a master meek and humble,
All ye holy spirits sanctified by humility,
Pray for me.
PRAYER.
O sweet Jesus! meek and humble of Heart, make my heart like unto Thine, and give me the grace of final perseverance. Amen.
