The Chaplet of The Divine Mercy Novena
Eighth Day
Today
bring to Me THE SOULS WHO ARE DETAINED IN PURGATORY, and immerse them
in the abyss of My mercy. Let the torrents of My Blood cool down their
scorching flames. All these souls are greatly loved by Me. They are
making retribution to My justice. It is in your power to bring them
relief. Draw all the indulgences from the treasury of My Church and
offer them on their behalf. Oh, if you only knew the torments they
suffer, you would continually offer for them the alms of the spirit and
pay off their debt to My justice.
Most Merciful
Jesus, You Yourself have said that You desire mercy; so I bring into the
abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls in Purgatory, souls
who are very dear to You, and yet, who must make retribution to Your
justice. May the streams of Blood and Water which gushed forth from Your
Heart put out the flames of Purgatory, that there, too, the power of
Your mercy may be celebrated.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful
gaze upon the souls suffering in Purgatory, who are enfolded in the Most
Compassionate Heart of Jesus. I beg You, by the sorrowful Passion of
Jesus Your Son, and by all the bitterness with which His most sacred
Soul was flooded: Manifest Your mercy to the souls who are under Your
just scrutiny. Look upon them in no other way but only through the
Wounds of Jesus, Your dearly beloved Son; for we firmly believe that
there is no limit to Your goodness and compassion. Amen.
