The Sacred Heart Novena Prayer

Day 7

O my divine Savior, according to the words of the Holy Scriptures,

you are in truth, our advocate before our father.

You have freely taken this office upon yourself and unceasingly exercise it with faithful and loving zeal for all who trust in you.

Your influence with the Father is so great, he will not refuse you.

He always hears you as you have testified at the grave of Lazarus.

Filled with his faith and with confidence in your compassionate heart, I come to you to plead

my cause.

I have offended our Father and have called the anger of his justice upon myself. I am heavily indebted to his strict

justice. I have nothing with which to pay the debt and therefore must fear the punishment.

Besides all this, I am in the present need of the request I placed before you where only the power

the father can help me.

For the salvation of my soul, I sorely need this grace.

O may it come to me from the riches of our Father,

O my beloved advocate, from your throne in heaven to your Father and to my Father,

to your God and to my father to your God and to my God reconcile me with him repay my

debts out of the infinite treasury of your merits and obtain for me assistance in my present trial

and the grace that I need so much in the our father you have composed a prayer with which I will now approach

the Father. Accompany me, and with the fervor and power of your most sacred heart, as my mediator,

say with me, Our Father Father who art in heaven.

O divine Jesus who has said, ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be open to you.
