LORD Jesus Christ, eternal and merciful God,
Creator and Redeemer of all, listen to my prayer.

For the love You did bear to those who ask forgiveness,
look on me with mercy, as once You did look on Mary Magdalen,
and on Peter who denied Thee.

Look on me, Lord Jesus Christ, as You did looked at the thief on his cross
and on every sinner whom You has ever forgiven.

Look on me, merciful Lord, as You did look on Thy Mother, Mary,
standing in sorrow beneath Thy Cross.

Let me feel in my heart her compassion for Thee,
and let my eyes weep for Thy sorrows, caused by my sinful life.

Call me back from the darkness to my Father's house, give me a new heart
and a place at Thy side in the banquet Thou has prepared for me. Amen
