Prayers

Novena to Sto. Niño

Opening Song

Batobalani sa Gugma

Ang simbahan gipatindog
niadtong mga tawhana
aron ang larawan nimo
dunay usang puloy-anan,
ug didto gihangyo nila
nga kaloy-an nimo sila.

KANAMO MALOOY KA UNTA
NGA KANIMO NANGILABA (2x)

Nangayo kami kanimo
nga ang matahom mong larawan
sa sulod sa kalag namo
makahimog puloy-anan
kay sa tanang kinahanglan
ikaw ang among dalangpan.

KANAMO MALOOY KA UNTA
NGA KANIMO NANGILABA (2x)

(Please All Kneel)

Leader:

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. AMEN.

Opening Prayer

Let us pray.

Oh, my dear Jesus! You are our King and our God, because of Your love for us You came down from heaven born of the Virgin Mary. My heart weeps, for in spite of Your goodness we have committed many sins. Forgive us, Oh Jesus, for our sin of ingratitude in return for Your goodness. Strengthen our will to resist temptation and sin. With Your Grace we will be able to fulfill our promises and share with Your glory in heaven.

Oh, Holy Child Jesus, who is ever good and loving, we kneel before You, our true God. With humility we implore You to give us Your mercy and grant us all the favors we ask of You in this NOVENA, so that we will enjoy the blessings of heaven. AMEN.

PETITIONS:

(1) Oh, ever-wise Jesus, who, in Your wisdom, had sent zealous missionaries to our humble shores to preach the Gospel to our forefathers so that they would see the LIGHT and embrace the CATHOLIC FAITH, we humbly ask You to give us a living Faith so that we may always please You in all that we do. We ask you this in Your holy name. Amen.

(2) Oh, most-loving Jesus, who has shown Your love to us by dying for us on the Cross and by giving Yourself to us in the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist, we beseech You to share with us Your Love so that we may always love You with all our hearts, with all our soul and with all our strength, and also so that we may always love our neighbor as ourselves. This we ask You in Your holy name. Amen.

(3) Oh Jesus, who has said, “Learn from Me because I am meek and humble of heart”, grant us the virtues of meekness and humility so that we may progress in our spiritual life, and so that our neighbor may see Your Image in us. We ask You thisin Your holy name.Amen.

(4) Oh, merciful Jesus. You had forgiven those who crucified You; we implore You to give us a forgiving heart so that we may always pardon those who will hurt us in word or in deed. This we ask You in Your holy name. Amen.

(5) Oh, merciful Jesus! You have said that “there will be more rejoicing in heaven for one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just who don't need repentance”; we beseech You to grant us the grace of repentance so that we may repent our sins and live for You alone. This we ask You in Your holy name. Amen.

(6) Oh, most-loving Jesus! You gave us an example of a chaste life while You were on earth; we implore You to grant us the virtue of chastity so that we may always live a chaste life in whatever state of life we have chosen. This we ask You in Your holy name. Amen.

(7) Oh, most merciful Jesus! You had been always obedient to Your heavenly Father even unto death; we beseech You to grant us the grace of being always docile to the promptings of the Holy Spirit so that we will always glorify Your Father in heaven. This we ask You in Your holy name.Amen.

(8) Oh, merciful Jesus! You opened the gates of heaven for us through Your death and resurrection; we implore You to grant us eternal life after our sojourn here on earth. We ask You this in Your holy name. Amen.

(9) Oh, merciful Jesus! You said, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life”; we beseech You to guide us in our way to heaven so that we may be able to surmount all the difficulties and obstacles we will encounter in this deceptive world. Amen.

SUPPLICATIONS TO SANTO NINO

PRAYER LEADER

Lord, have mercy on us.

Christ, have mercy on us.

Lord, have mercy on us.

Jesus, hear us.

In every need let us come to you with humble trust,

In all our doubts, perplexities, and temptations,

In hours of loneliness, weariness and trials,

In the failure of our plans and hopes,

In disappointments, trouble and sorrows,

When others fail us, and your Grace alone can assist us,

When we throw ourselves on Your Tender Love as our only Refuge,

When our heart is cast down by failure,

When we are ill, and our head and hands cannot work and we are lonely,

When we feel impatient, and our cross irritates us,

Always, always, in spite of weakness, falls, and shortcomings of every kind.

Lamb of God, who take away the sins of the world;

Jesus, Hear us.

RESPONSE

Lord, have mercy on us.

Christ, have mercy on us.

Lord, have mercy on us.

Jesus, graciously hear us.

Santo Nino, help us.

Spare us, O Jesus

Graciously hear us, O Jesus.

Have mercy upon us, O Jesus.

Jesus, Graciously hear us.

Leader: Praise be the name of the Lord

All: Now and forever.

Closing Prayer

LET US PRAY

Oh, sweet and merciful Jesus! Senor Santo Nino, the source of all goodness, we kneel before Your sacred image, imploring Your Divine aid for universal peace and brotherhood among all men, enlighten the unbelievers and the heathens so that they will believe you as their true God. Restore the faith of those who have wandered away from you, bring them back to Your fold with repentance in their hearts.

Grant also to faithful departed in Purgatory the remission of all their sins so that they will rest in peace forever. Finally, nourish and strengthen our faith in You so that we will serve You faithfully on earth. AMEN.

Closing Song

Batobalani sa Gugma

Bato balani sa gugma,
sa daan tawo palangga. (2x)

KANAMO MALOOY KA UNTA
NGA KANIMO NANGILABA (2x)

Dinhi sa syudad sa Sugbo
ang matahum mong larawan
sa unang mga misyonero
sa usang balay hipalgan.
Kanila ikaw nagpakita
gikan da sa imong gugma.

KANAMO MALOOY KA UNTA
NGA KANIMO NANGILABA (2x)

Giludhan ikaw gisimba
niadtong mga kaparian.
Sa tanan nga katawhan
sa mga punoan nila
kay sa pagtan-aw kanimo
kristyano sila nahimo.

KANAMO MALOOY KA UNTA
NGA KANIMO NANGILABA (2x)

Ang simbahan gipatindog
niadtong mga tawhana
aron ang larawan nimo
dunay usang puloy-anan,
ug didto gihangyo nila
nga kaloy-an nimo sila.

KANAMO MALOOY KA UNTA
NGA KANIMO NANGILABA (2x)

Nangayo kami kanimo
nga ang matahom mong larawan
sa sulod sa kalag namo
makahimog puloy-anan
kay sa tanang kinahanglan
ikaw ang among dalangpan.
