Act of Consecration to the Most Precious Blood
Blood of Jesus, inebriate me! O Jesus, my Beloved
Savior, ever present in the Tabernacle, to be the strength,
the joy and the food of souls, I come to consecrate
myself to Your Precious Blood, and to pledge You
my sincere love and fidelity.
Pierced with sorrow at the remembrance of Your
sufferings, the contemplation of the Cross, and
the thought of the outrages and contempt lavished
by ungrateful souls upon Your dear Blood, I long,
O my Jesus, to bring joy to Your Heart, and to make
You forget my sins, and those of the whole world,
by consecrating my body and soul to Your service.
I desire, my Jesus, to live henceforth, only by Your
Blood and for Your Blood. I now choose it as my
greatest treasure and the dearest object of my love.
O merciful Redeemer, deign to regard me as
a perpetual adorer of Your Most Precious Blood,
and be pleased to accept my prayers, my deeds,
and my sacrifices, as so many acts of reparation
and love.
Heavenly Wine, giver of purity and strength, pour
down upon my soul. Make of my heart a living chalice
from which grace shall constantly flow on those who
love You, and especially on poor sinners who offend
You. Teach me to honor You and to make You honored
by others. Give me power to draw to You cold and
hardened hearts, that they may feel how infinitely
Your consolations surpass those of the world.
O Blood of my Crucified Savior, detach me from
the world. Make me love suffering and sacrifice. O
Precious Blood, be my strength amid the trials of exile.
Saints of God, who owe their happiness to the Blood
of Jesus; Angelic spirits, who sing its glory and power,
august Virgin, who to it owes the privileges of the
Immaculate Conception and Divine Maternity, help me
to pay to the Precious Blood of my Redeemer, a perpetual
homage of adoration, reparation, and thanksgiving. Amen.
