LITANY FOR THE ROGATION DAYS.

Litany for the Rogation Days.

GOD the FATHER, from Thy Throne,

Hear us, we beseech GOD the co- eternal SON,

Hear us, we beseech Thee; GOD the SPIRIT, mighty LORD, Hear us, we beseech Thee; THREE in ONE, by all adored, Hear us, we beseech Thee.

JESU! JESU!

By Thy wondrous Incarnation, By Thy Birth for our salvation,

We beseech Thee, we beseech Thee,

From every ill defend us,

Thy grace and mercy send us.

JESU! JESU!

By Thy Fasting and Temptation, By Thy nights of supplication,

We beseech Thee, we beseech Thee, From every ill defend us, Thy grace and mercy send us.

JESU! JESU!

By Thy works of sweet compassion, By Thy Cross and bitter Passion,

We beseech Thee, we beseech Thee, From every ill defend us, Thy grace and mercy send us.

JESU! JESU!

By Thy Blood for sinners flowing, By Thy Death true life bestowing,

We beseech Thee, we beseech Thee,

From every ill defend us, Thy grace and mercy send us.

JESU! JESU!

By Thy glorious Resurrection, Earnest of our own perfection,

We beseech Thee, we beseech Thee, From every ill defend us, Thy grace and mercy send us. ( 338)
