Jesus, exhausted with sufferings and walking to Calvary laden with the burden of Your Cross, we bless You
Jesus, stripped of all Your clothes, lying on the ground and stretched violently on the wood of the Cross, we give You thanks
Jesus, nailed mercilessly to the wood of infamy and placed among the greatest sinners, we love You
Jesus, full of sweetness for those who want to drink You with wine mixed with myrrh, we cherish You
Jesus, praying and asking mercy for Your persecutors and tormentors, we give You glory
Jesus, showing Yourself obedient to the Father until death and placing Your soul in His hands, You who are also GOD within GOD, we bless You
Jesus, lowering our head and expiring in the ardor of Your love for us, we give You thanks
Jesus, dead for us and letting Your Heart open with the thrust of the lance to better show us Your mercy always offered, we cherish You
Lamb of God who take away the sins of the world, forgive us Lord.
Lamb of God who take away the sins of the world, hear us Lord.
Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, open our hearts Lord.
O my GOD, do not allow me to succumb to temptation but make me victorious over the Evil One.
O Lord, listen to my prayer and may my cries reach You.
O Jesus, King of Love, I trust in Your merciful Goodness.
Amen.

Litanies are prayers characterised by the chanted repetition of intercessory requests. These intercessory requests are generally addressed to the Virgin Mary, the Sacred Heart or the Saints and are intended to solicit their intercession with God.
When to recite the litanies and what are they for?
The litanies are generally recited individually, depending on the difficulty for which help is desired, in groups (in families or in prayer groups) and in certain solemn liturgical ceremonies of the Catholic Church.
The Litanies of the Saints for example, are sung during the Easter Vigil, during baptism ceremonies, priestly or episcopal ordinations and on the feast of the Saints (All Saints).
The prayer of the Litany is foreseen, in particular, during the Easter Vigil, before the blessing of the baptismal water, and also during the celebration of baptism and ordinations to the sacred order of the episcopate, presbyterate and diaconate, as well as in the rite of the consecration of virgins and of religious profession in the rite of dedication of a church and an altar, during rogations, during Masses with stations and during penitential processions, to order the Evil One away in exorcisms, and finally to recommend the dying to the mercy of God.
The Litany of the Saints, which contains elements from both liturgical tradition and popular piety, illustrates the Church's trust in the intercession of the Saints, and highlights her experience of the communion that unites the Church in the heavenly Jerusalem and the Church still on pilgrimage on earth. It is permitted to invoke in the Litany of the Saints the names of those listed in the liturgical calendars of dioceses and religious institutes.
It is evident that it is forbidden to insert in the Litanies the names of persons whose cult is not recognised.
