We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Or this:

I. O God, who hast suffered the Heart of thy Son to be wounded by our sins, and in that very heart hast bestowed on us the abundant riches of thy love: grant that the devout homage of our hearts, which we render unto Him; may by thy mercy be deemed a recompense, acceptable in thy sight; through the same Jesus Christ thy Son, our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen.

II. Father, we have wounded the heart of Jesus your Son, but he brings us forgiveness and grace. Help us to prove our grateful love and make amends for our sins. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Prayer over the Gifts

Lord, look on the heart of Christ your Son, filled with love for us. Because of his love, accept our Eucharist and forgive our sins. Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
