The Three O’Clock Prayer

WORDS OF JESUS TO ST. FAUSTINA, DIARY, 1320.

(Diary, 84, 1319)

The Three O’Clock Prayer*

You expired, O Jesus, but the source of life flowed out for souls and an ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world.

O Fountain of Life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelop the whole world and empty Yourself out upon us.

O Blood and Water which flowed out from the heart of Jesus as a fount of mercy for us, I trust in You.

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and the whole world.

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One have mercy on us and the whole world.

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and the whole world.

Amen

Jesus, King of Mercy, I trust in You!

Our Lord asked St. Faustina, and through her, all of us, “for a special prayer and meditation on His Passion each afternoon at the three o’clock hour, the hour that recalls His death on the cross…[He] wants us to turn our attention to His Passion at the three o’clock hour to whatever degree our duties allow, and He wants us to ask for His mercy.”

“At three o’clock, implore My mercy, especially for sinners; and, if only for a brief moment, immerse yourself in My Passion, particularly in My abandonment at the moment of agony. This is the hour of great mercy. In this hour, I will refuse nothing to the soul that makes a request of Me in virtue of My Passion.”
