The Divine Praises

At one point, I learned the Divine Praises. I use this prayer when I bless my house with Holy Water. You may wonder why I do this. Well, it's a long story, but not one for now. In any case, I try to bless the house regularly. After having used the Divine Praises for a while, I found that they would spontaneously roll off my tongue at odd moments of the day, giving me a great pick-me-up, and resetting my perspective on my day!

The Divine Praises

Blessed be God.
Blessed be His Holy Name.
Blessed be Jesus Christ, true God and true man.
Blessed be the name of Jesus.
Blessed be His Most Sacred Heart.
Blessed be Jesus in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar.
Blessed be the Holy Spirit, the paraclete.
Blessed be the great Mother of God, Mary most holy.
Blessed be her holy and Immaculate Conception.
Blessed be her glorious Assumption.
Blessed be the name of Mary, Virgin and Mother.
Blessed be Saint Joseph, her most chaste spouse.
Blessed be God in His angels and in His Saints.

May the heart of Jesus, in the Most Blessed Sacrament, be praised, adored, and loved with grateful affection, at every moment, in all the tabernacles of the world, even to the end of time. Amen.
