Litany of Tranquility

Lord have mercy,

Christ have mercy, 

Lord have mercy,

God the Father, have mercy, 

God the Son, have mercy, 

God the Holy Ghost, have mercy,

Holy Trinity, one God, have mercy.

O Lord, grant

That we would learn to sit with our emotions,

That we would seek the origins and root of every emotion and impulse,

That we would learn to parent ourselves,

That we would feel safe to begin our healing journey,

That we would learn to process our anger in healthy ways,

That we would learn from regrets,

That we would learn to communicate our feelings,

That we would release every bitterness into the tranquil embrace of forgiveness,

That we would harbor no resentment,

That we would accept and express true joy,

That we would seek to heal our inner child,

Consoler of hearts, pray for us,

Peace of spirit, pray for us,

Emotional tranquility, pray for us,

Unfailing forgiveness, pray for us,

Compassionate hope, pray for us,

Enlightening grace, pray for us,

Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, spare us, O Lord.

Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, graciously hear us, O Lord,

Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.

Oremus,

O God, in the turmoil of our repressed emotions, be our guide toward everlasting tranquility, patience and peace. Help us to process these hidden emotions and deliver us from the temptations and discord, which arise from these hidden wounds. Be our light and our hope in the healing of our wounded inner children.
