O MOST Sacred and Adorable Heart of Jesus, we consecrate to thee this child (here name the child), his soul with all its faculties, his heart with all its affections, his body with its senses, now and for all the days of his life. O most merciful Heart of Jesus! grant that this child may never sully by mortal sin the white robe of his baptismal innocence. O most loving Heart of Jesus, preserve this child in Thy divine fear and love all the days of his life, protect him at the hour of his death, and grant him the grace to see his God “face to face” in the joys of paradise. Amen.
