National Consecration Prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
O Most Sacred Heart of Jesus: You know the longings of our hearts, and You desire that we enjoy friendship with You. From Your pierced side, You have poured out the wellspring of life, for which we thirst. Your Heart burns with a love for all people to return to a right relationship with You.
We celebrate the abundant gifts You have given this nation, founded on the self-evident truths that our Creator has endowed all people with the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
We make reparation for the offenses against You and against human dignity that have taken place in this nation.
May our hearts be united to Yours, so that our families and communities enjoy peace and happiness; may broken relationships be reconciled, injustices repaired and the wounds of our land be healed.
May Your holy Catholic Church serve as a sign, pointing all people to Your infinite love.
O Desire of Nations and Center of History, we ask You to bless these United States of America. Who live and reign with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever. Amen.

A Consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
By St. Margaret Mary Alacoque
I consecrate and surrender to the Sacred Heart of our Lord Jesus Christ, my person, my life, my difficulties and my sufferings, that I may henceforth live only for His love and glory. It is my firm and unwavering purpose to be His entirely, to do everything for His love and renounce wholeheartedly everything that could displease His divine heart.
O Sacred Heart, I choose you as the sole object of my love, the protector of my life, the pledge of my salvation, the support of my weakness and the atoner for all the sins of my whole life. O mild and bountiful Heart, be likewise my refuge at the hour of death, my justification before God, and ward off from me the penalty of His just wrath.
O loving Heart, I place my trust entirely in you. While I fear everything from my own malice, I hope everything from your goodness. Destroy in me whatever may displease you or be opposed to you, and let your pure love imprint you so deeply upon my heart that it will be impossible for me ever to forget you or be separated from you.
O Sacred Heart, by your goodness, I implore you, let my name be deeply engraved in you for in your service and in your love I will live and die. Amen.
