I, [state your name], give myself and consecrate
to the Sacred Heart of our Lord Jesus Christ
my person and my life, my actions, pains, and
sufferings, so that I may be unwilling to make use
of any part of my being save to honor, love, and
glorify the Sacred Heart.
This is my unchanging purpose, namely, to be
all His, and to do all things for the love of Him,
at the same time renouncing with all my heart
whatever is displeasing to Him.
I therefore take Thee, O Sacred Heart, to be
the only object of my love, the guardian of my life,
my assurance of salvation, the remedy of my
weakness and inconstancy, the atonement
for all the faults of my life, and my sure
refuge at the hour of death.
Be then, O Heart of goodness, my justification
before God Thy Father, and turn away from me
the strokes of His righteous anger. O Heart of
love, I put all my confidence in Thee for I fear
everything from my own wickedness and frailty,
but I hope for all things from Thy goodness and bounty.
Do Thou consume in me all that can displease
Thee or resist Thy holy will; let Thy pure love imprint
Thee so deeply upon my heart, that I shall nevermore
be able to forget Thee or to be separated from Thee;
may I obtain from all Thy loving kindness the grace of
having my name written in Thee, for in Thee I desire
to place all my happiness and all my glory, living and
dying in very bondage to Thee.
Amen.
