St. Therese’s Prayer for Priests

Sr. JosephMary f.t.i. — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 20:58:33 +0000

One Minute Meditation

Prayer for Priests

by St. Therese of Lisieux

O Jesus, eternal Priest,

keep your priests within the shelter of Your Sacred Heart,

where none may touch them.

Keep unstained their anointed hands,

which daily touch Your Sacred Body.

Keep unsullied their lips,

daily purpled with your Precious Blood.

Keep pure and unearthly their hearts,

sealed with the sublime mark of the priesthood.

Let Your holy love surround them and

shield them from the world’s contagion.

Bless their labors with abundant fruit and

may the souls to whom they minister be their joy and consolation

here and in heaven their beautiful and everlasting crown. Amen.

Nov 01 – Homily – Fr Dominic: Desire to be Hallowed Souls

apostolate — Mon, 01 Nov 2010 11:58:28 +0000

Homily #101101 ( 12min) Play – Fr. Dominic preaches on the need to desire sanctity in order to get to heaven and this is why we honor all the saints on this Solemnity of All Saints, to spur our desire. This desire must extend beyond our first fervor of a moment of conversion, and be fostered until the day we depart from this life. We must have purity of heart to achieve peace with God and peace among men in the likeness of Mary Immaculate. To get this long-lasting desire we must pray for it.

Dies Irae – Gregorian

apostolate — Thu, 04 Nov 2010 16:31:39 +0000

For this Month of November let us remember the Souls in purgatory and pray so that we too are prepared for our coming judgment. And for your meditation:

Dies iræ ! dies illa

Solvet sæclum in favilla:

Teste David cum Sibylla !

The day of wrath, that day

Will dissolve the world in ashes

As foretold by David and the sibyl!

Quantus tremor est futurus,

Quando iudex est venturus,

Cuncta stricte discussurus !

How much tremor there will be,

when the judge will come,

investigating everything strictly!

Tuba, mirum spargens sonum

–

Per sepulchra regionum,

Coget omnes ante thronum.

The trumpet, scattering

a wondrous sound

through the sepulchres of the regions,

will summon all before the throne.

Mors stupebit, et natura,

Cum resurget creatura,

Iudicanti responsura.

Death and nature will marvel,

when the creature arises,

to respond to the Judge.

Liber scriptus proferetur,

In quo totum continetur,

Unde mundus iudicetur.

The written book will be brought forth,

in which all is contained,

from which the world shall be judged.

Iudex ergo cum sedebit,

Quidquid latet, apparebit:

Nil inultum remanebit.

When therefore the judge will sit,

whatever hides will appear:

nothing will remain unpunished.

Quid sum miser tunc dicturus ?

Quem patronum rogaturus,

Cum vix iustus sit securus ?

What am I, miserable, then to say?

Which patron to ask,

when [even] the just may [only]

hardly be sure?

Rex tremendæ maiestatis,

Qui salvandos salvas gratis,

–

Salva me, fons pietatis.

King of tremendous majesty,

who freely savest those that have

to be saved,

save me, source of mercy.

Recordare, Iesu pie,

Quod sum causa tuæ viæ:

Ne me perdas illa die.

Remember, merciful Jesus,

that I am the cause of thy way:

lest thou lose me in that day.

Quærens me, sedisti lassus:

Redemisti Crucem passus:

–

Tantus labor non sit cassus.

Seeking me, thou sat tired:

thou redeemed [me] having

suffered the Cross:

let not so much hardship be lost.

Iuste iudex ultionis,

Donum fac remissionis

Ante diem rationis.

Just judge of revenge,

give the gift of remission

before the day of reckoning.

Ingemisco, tamquam reus:

Culpa rubet vultus meus:

Supplicanti parce, Deus.

I sigh, like the guilty one:

my face reddens in guilt:

Spare the supplicating one, God.

Qui Mariam absolvisti,

Et latronem exaudisti,

Mihi quoque spem dedisti.

Thou who absolved Mary,

and heardest the robber,

gavest hope to me, too.

Preces meæ non sunt dignæ:

Sed tu bonus fac benigne,

Ne perenni cremer igne.

My prayers are not worthy:

however, thou, Good [Lord], do good,

lest I am burned up by eternal fire.

Inter oves locum præsta,

Et ab hædis me sequestra,

Statuens in parte dextra.

Grant me a place among the sheep,

and take me out from among the goats,

setting me on the right side.

Confutatis maledictis,

Flammis acribus addictis:

Voca me cum benedictis.

Once the cursed have been rebuked,

sentenced to acrid flames:

Call thou me with the blessed.

Oro supplex et acclinis,

Cor contritum quasi cinis:

Gere curam mei finis.

I meekly and humbly pray,

[my] heart is as crushed as the ashes:

perform the healing of mine end.

Lacrimosa dies illa,

qua resurget ex favilla

iudicandus homo reus.

Huic ergo parce, Deus:

Tearful will be that day,

on which from the ashes arises

the guilty man who is to be judged.

Spare him therefore, God.

Pie Iesu Domine,

dona eis requiem. Amen.

Merciful Lord Jesus,

grant them rest. Amen.
