O Eternal Love, You command Your Sacred Image to be painted
And reveal to us the inconceivable fount of mercy, 
You bless whoever approaches Your rays,
 And a soul all black will turn into snow.

O sweet Jesus, it is here² You established the throne of Your mercy 
To bring joy and hope to sinful man, 
From Your open Heart, as from a pure fount, 
Flows comfort to a repentant heart and soul.

May praise and glory for this Image 
Never cease to stream from man's soul.

May praise and glory for this Image 
Never cease to stream from man's soul, 
May praise of God's mercy pour from every heart, 
Now, and at every hour, and forever and ever.

O My God

2.
When I look into the future, I am frightened,
But why plunge into the future?
Only the present moment is precious to me,
As the future may never enter my soul at all.

It is no longer in my power,
To change, correct or add to the past;
For neither sages nor prophets could do that. 
And so, what the past has embraced I must entrust to God.

O present moment, you belong to me, whole and entire,
I desire to use you as best I can.
And although I am weak and small,
You grant me the grace of Your omnipotence.

And so, trusting in Your mercy,
I walk through life like a little child,
Offering You each day this heart
Burning with love for Your greater glory.

O my Jesus, because of my trust in You,
I weave thousands of garlands, and I know 
That they will all blossom. 
And I know that they will all blossom 
When God's sun will shine on them.

 + O great and Divine Sacrament 
That veils my God! 
Jesus, be with me each moment, 
And no fear will enter my heart.

5.
Be adored, O Most Holy Trinity, now and for all time. Be adored in all Your works and all Your creatures. May the greatness of Your mercy be admired and glorified, O God.

6. 
I am to write down³ the encounters of my soul with You, O God, at the moments of Your special visitations. I am to write about You, O Incomprehensible in mercy towards my poor soul. Your holy will is the life of my soul. I have received this order through him who is for me Your representative here on earth, who interprets Your holy Will to me. Jesus, You see how difficult it is for me to write, how unable I am to put down clearly what I experience in my soul. O God, can a pen write down that for which many a time there are no words? But You give the order to write, O God; that is enough for me.
