Chaplet to the Merciful Face of Jesus

(The Chaplet may be said on a traditional set of  Rosary beads)

On the crucifix...      I confess to Almighty God, and to you my brothers  and sisters, that I have sinned through my own fault in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done, and in what I have failed to do: and I ask Blessed Mary, ever virgin, all the angels and saints, and you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God. May Almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, and bring us to everlasting life.

Our Father..., 3 Hail Mary's..., Glory Be...

Act of Perfect Contrition 

      O my God, I am heartily sorry and beg pardon for all my sins, not so much because these sins bring suffering and hell to me; but because they have crucified my Loving Savior Jesus Christ and offended Your infinite Goodness. I firmly resolve, with the help of Your grace, to confess my sins, to do penance and to amend my life.   Amen.
