Novena to the Holy Name of Jesus (Lasance, 1904)

O MERCIFUL Jesus! Who didst in Thy early infancy commence Thy office of Saviour by shedding Thy precious blood, and assuming for us that name which is above all names: we thank Thee for such early proofs of Thine infinite love. We venerate Thy sacred name in union with the profound respect of that angel who first announced it to the earth, and unite our affections to the sentiments of tender devotion, which the adorable name of Jesus has, in all ages, enkindled in the hearts of Thy saints. Animated with a firm faith in Thy unerring word, and penetrated with confidence in Thy mercy, we now most humbly remind Thee of the promise Thou hast made, that when two or three should assemble in Thy name, Thou Thyself wouldst be in the midst of them. Come then into the midst of us, most amiable Jesus, for it is in Thy sacred name we are here assembled. Come into our hearts, that Thy Holy Spirit may pray in and by us; and through that adorable name which is the joy of heaven, the terror of hell, the consolation of the afflicted, and the solid ground of our unlimited confidence, mercifully grant us all the petitions of this novena.

O Mary ever Virgin, and blessed Mother of Our Redeemer, who didst participate so sensibly in the sufferings of thy dear Son, when He first shed His sacred blood, and assumed for us the name of Jesus, obtain for us through that adorable name the favors we petition Him. Beg also that He may inflame our hearts with His divine love, and imprint thereon His most sacred name; that it may be always in our minds, frequently on our lips, our refuge and hope during life, and our consolation and support at the hour of death. Amen.
