Prayer to be said before each Mass at which you assist

Eternal Father, I offer Thee the sacrifice that Thy well-beloved Son offer to Thee on the cross and that is now renewed on this altar. I offer it in the name of all creatures, together with the Masses which have been celebrated and will be celebrated throughout the world, to adore Thee, to render Thee the honor and the thanksgiving which are due to Thee for Thy innumerable benefits, to appease Thy anger provoked by our numberless sins, and make Thee a worthy satisfaction for them, and, finally, to implore Thy mercy for myself, for the Church, the whole world, and the souls in purgatory.
