Opening prayer
By the sign of the Holy Cross...
Hey. Hail Mary, full of grace...
Hey. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us.
Hey. Open, Lord, my lips.
Hey. And my mouth will sing your praises.
Hey. Oh, my God, come to our help.
Hey. Sir, hurry up and help us.
Hey. Glory to the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Hey. As it was at first, now and always...
Condom act (every day)
My condolences, my God, and I am very sorry for having offended you. I regret the hell I deserved and the heaven I lost; but much more weighs me because, in sin, I offended a God as good and as great as you; rather I would have died than offended you, and I propose firmly, helped by your divine grace, to sin no more and to avoid the near occasions of sin. Amen.
Preparatory prayer for every day
Oh, Mary, my dear mother! I offer myself to you today and consecrate to you forever all that remains of my life: my body with all its miseries, my soul with all its weaknesses, my heart with all its affections and desires; all my prayers, works, loves, sufferings and fighting; especially my death, with all that accompanies it, my last pains and my last agony. And all this, O Mary!, and each of these particular things, one forever and irrevocably to your love, to your tears, to your suffering.
Sweet Mother of Montserrat! Remember me and the consecration I make of my person. And if I, overcome by discouragement or sadness, by dismay or dismay, ever come to forget you... then, my mother!, I ask you insistently, for the love you have for Jesus, to protect me as Mother, to turn me back into a faithful disciple of your Son, and to serve and worship Him, who is our only Savior and Redeemer. So be it.
Next is the prayer of the day concerned
