ACCEPTING  JESUS 
AS MY  SAVIOR

Every time I come to Mass,
I’m accepting You, Jesus, as my Savior.

Every time we say the “Glory to God
in the highest prayer” at Mass,
I’m accepting You, Jesus,  as my Savior.

Every time I read or hear the gospels
and I say “Glory to You, O Lord”
at the beginning of Your Gospel and
“Praise to You, Lord Jesus Christ”
at the end of the listening,
I’m accepting You, Jesus, as my Savior.

Every time I’m praying the Creed,
Apostles’ or Nicene,
I’m accepting You,  Jesus as my Savior.

Every time I receive Communion,
Your Body and Blood of Jesus Christ,
I’m accepting You, Jesus, as my Savior.

Every time I walk with You
in Your the Stations of the Cross, 
I’m accepting You, Jesus,  as my Savior.

Every time I visit You Jesus Christ
in the Blessed Sacrament
I’m accepting You, Jesus as my Savior.

Every time I visit the sick and feed the
hungry and help the poor and the hurting
in Your Body of Christ,
I’m accepting You, Jesus, as my Savior.

Every time I begin or end anything
by making the sign of the Cross,
I’m accepting You, Jesus as my Savior.

Every time I’m reciting this litany,
I’m accepting  You,  Jesus as my Savior.
