PRAYER TO THE INFANT OF PRAGUE
Infant Jesus, through the intercession of Mary, Your Mother, I beg Your help in my needs. I believe that You are all-powerful and can protect me. Full of confidence, I come to You, knowing that You will give me graces. Repenting of my sins and asking You to free me from their fetters, I now give my heart entirely to You.
I firmly propose to amend my ways and never offend You again. I resolve to patiently suffer everything for You, so as to serve You eternally. For You I will love my neighbor as myself. I ask You, dear Jesus, to help me in my needs, so that I may enjoy You for all eternity with Mary, Joseph, and the angels. Amen.
Rev. Cyril of the Mother of God
NOVENA PRAYER TO THE MIRACULOUS INFANT JESUS OF PRAGUE
(begin each day with the following)
I beg of Thee, my God, make haste to assist me.
Oh, Holy Father, merciful creator of all seen and unseen, help your children as we call upon You to protect, guide, and strengthen all of us, so we may do your will.
We honor You through Your son Jesus Christ and call upon Our Lord in the form of the Miraculous Infant of Prague to ask His help in our daily lives.
Lord, You promised those who ask would receive, those who seek would find those who knock would have doors opened, that faith would move mountains.
Hear the prayers of your humble children, grant our petitions, and pardon our sins.
Amen
Dear Infant Jesus, You have answered the pleas of the many who have asked for Your help. Listen to our prayers, and grant our petitions (mention petitions silently).
