Holy Mother of God, I come before you with tears of sorrow for the sins of all mankind. As I gaze on your wounded and mutilated image, I humbly beg your pardon for the grievous insults to you. I come to you in reparation for this outrage. As I contemplate your wounds, let me also notice the hidden wounds of those around me. Let me see your beauty reflected in the poor and disfranchised. Help me follow your sorrowful and immaculate heart in forgiveness, as your Son commanded, and liberate me from eternal blindness of the soul. Amen.
