O Lord have mercy on me, to God I commend my soul.

I have come to know a God of compassion and mercy and love.

After many years of great mercy, after tasting of the powers of the world to come, we still are so weak, so foolish; but, oh! when we get away from self to God, there all is truth and purity and holiness, and our heart finds peace, wisdom, completeness, delight, joy, victory.

I am an old sinner; and if God had designed mercy for me, he would have called me home to himself before now.

God's mercy and grace give me hope - for myself, and for our world.

Spare me through your mercy, do not punish me through your justice.

I fear God never showed mercy to one so vile as I.

Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.

All that I am I owe to Jesus Christ, revealed to me in His divine Book.

Are you not moved to tears and bitter compassion, when you behold the only Son of God seized by the most impious, dragged away, mocked, scourged, buffeted, spit upon, crowned with thorns, hung upon the infamous cross between two thieves, finally in such a horrible and execrable manner suffering death, for your salvation and that of the world?
