Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore Thee profoundly and offer Thee the Most Precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all the tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges, and indifference by which He Himself is offended. And, through the infinite merits of His Most Sacred Heart and of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg of Thee the conversion of poor sinners.

Let us pray.

Amen.
A traditional litany of reparation; its author is unknown.
Reparation means making amends to God: offering Him our love, adoration and sacrifice for the sins committed against Him. EWTN describes it as “the making of amends for insults given to God through sin, either one’s own or another’s” (EWTN). The devotion grew especially through St. Margaret Mary and the Sacred Heart, when Our Lord asked for love in return for the ingratitude He receives, above all in the Blessed Sacrament.
In 1916, before Our Lady appeared at Fatima, an angel came to the three shepherd children holding a chalice with a Host above it. Leaving the Host and chalice suspended in the air, he prostrated himself on the ground and prayed three times the prayer of reparation given above (EWTN).
The Litany of Reparation is a traditional prayer of reparation to Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament; its author is unknown. Pray it during a Holy Hour, a visit to the Blessed Sacrament, or on First Fridays. You may also like our Adoration Prayer, the Divine Praises and the Act of Reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
