I. Lord Jesus Christ, my crucified Savior, Son of the most Blessed Virgin Mary! open Thine ear and listen to me, as Thou didst listen to Thy eternal Father on Mount Thabor.
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; Who was conceived of the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell; the third day He arose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven and sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty: from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
II. Lord Jesus Christ, my crucified Savior, Son of the most Blessed Virgin Mary! open Thine eyes and look down upon me, as Thou didst look down, from the tree of the Holy Cross, upon Thy sorrowing and afflicted Mother.
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; Who was conceived of the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.

I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
III. Lord Jesus Christ, my crucified Savior, Son of the most Blessed Virgin Mary! open Thy sacred lips and speak to me, as Thou didst speak to Saint John, when Thou gavest him as a son to Thy beloved Mother.
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; Who was conceived of the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell; the third day He arose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven and sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty: from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
IV. Lord Jesus Christ, my crucified Savior, Son of the most Blessed Virgin Mary! open Thine arms and embrace me, as Thou didst open them, on the tree of the Holy Cross, to embrace the whole human race.
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; Who was conceived of the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.

I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
V. Lord Jesus Christ, my crucified Savior, Son of the most Blessed Virgin Mary! open Thy heart and accept mine, and graciously hear my prayer, if such be the pleasure of Thy most Holy Will.
