Chanted Litany of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in Latin | Litaniae Sacri Cordis Iesu (English Captions)

Salve Maria!
Here is the Litany of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus in Gregorian chant. The invocations of this truly magnificent Sacred Heart of Jesus Litany were drafted by many holy saints, such as Father Croiset who composed a litany in 1691 from which 17 invocations were used by Venerable Anne Madeleine Remuzat when she composed her litany in 1718 at Marseilles. She joined an additional 10 invocations to those of Father Croiset, for a total of 27 invocations. Six more invocations written by Sister Madeleine Joly of Dijon in 1686 was later added in to make it 33 invocations, each for one year of the earthly life of Our Lord Jesus Christ. In 1899 Pope Leo XIII approved this Litany of the Sacred Heart of Jesus for public use. A partial indulgence is attached to this litany.
Devotion to the Sacred Heart is a form of devotion to the person Jesus, and especially to His Love.
The Catholic Encyclopedia details a history of this devotion. It observed that from the time of Saint John and Saint Paul there has always been in the Church something like devotion to the love of God, Who so loved the world as to give it His only-begotten Son, and to the love of Jesus, Who has so loved us as to deliver Himself up for us. But, accurately speaking, this is not the devotion to the Sacred Heart, as it pays no homage to the Heart of Jesus as the symbol of His love for us. From the earliest centuries, Christ’s open side and the mystery of blood and water were meditated upon, and the Church was beheld issuing from the side of Jesus, as Eve came forth from the side of Adam. But there is nothing to indicate that, during the first ten centuries, any worship was rendered the wounded Heart.
It is in the eleventh and twelfth centuries that we find the first unmistakable indications of devotion to the Sacred Heart. Through the wound in the side the wounded Heart was gradually reached , and the wound in the Heart symbolized the wound of Divine Love. In the Benedictine and Cistercian monasteries devotion arose, although it is impossible to say what were the first texts. Saint Gertrude (d. 1302) had a vision on the feast of John the Evangelist. She was resting her head near the wound in the Savior’s side and hearing the beating of the Divine Heart. She asked Saint John if on the night of the Last Supper, he had felt these delightful pulsations, why he had never spoken of the fact. Saint John replied that this revelation had been reserved for subsequent ages when the world, having grown cold, would have need of it to rekindle its love.
From the thirteenth to the sixteeenth century, the devotion was practiced as a private, individual devotion of the mystical order. In the sixteenth century, the devotion took an onward step and passed from the domain of mysticism into that of Christian asceticism. It was constituted an objective devotion with prayers already formulated and special exercises of which the value was extolled and practice commended.
The devotion was greatly increased by the visions Sister Margaret Mary Alacoque (1647-1690), a French Visitandine nun at the convent of Paray-le-Monial. She had a vision of Christ’s Heart on the feast of Saint John that was similiar to that of Saint Gertrude. Jesus permitted her to rest her head upon His Heart, and then disclosed to her the wonders of His love, telling her that He desired to make this known to mankind and to diffuse the treasures of His goodness, and that He had chosen her for this work, (probably 1673, Dec. 27). In June or July o f 1674, Sister Margaret Mary said, Jesus asked to be honored under the figure of His Heart of Flesh and asked for a devotion of expiatory love - frequent Communion, Communion on the first Friday of each month and the observance of Holy Hours.
In another visioin, on the feast of Corpus Christi 1675, Sister Margaret Mary reported that Jesus told her, “Behold the Heart that has so loved men…instead of gratitude I receive from the greater part (of mankind) only ingratitude…” Jesus then asked for a feast of reparation on the Friday after the octave of Corpus Christi. bidding her to consult Father de la Colombiére, then superior of the small Jesuit house at Paray. He recognized the action of the Spirit of God and consecrated himself to the Sacred Heart and directed Sister Margaret Mary to write down her account and to circulate it throughout France and England. Sister Margaret Mary Alacoque was canonized in the 20th century.
The month of June is dedicated to the Most Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ - the abyss of all virtues! Let us try to listen to this Litany every day during this month and meditate on the marvels that are contained in the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus!

«Tú has sido bautizado en nombre de la Trinidad. Has profesado -no lo olvides- tu fe en el Padre, en el Hijo y en el Espíritu Santo. Vive conforme a lo que has hecho. Por esta fe has muerto para el mundo y has resucitado para Dios… Descendiste a la piscina bautismal. Recuerda tu profesión de fe en el Padre, en el Hijo y en el Espíritu Santo. No significa esto que creas en uno que es el más grande, en otro que es menor, en otro que es el último, sino que el mismo tenor de tu profesión de fe te induce a que creas en el Hijo igual que en el Padre, en el Espíritu igual que en el Hijo, con la sola excepción de que profesas que tu fe en la Cruz se refiere únicamente a la Persona del Señor». San Ambrosio. Sobre los Misterios 21 y 38.

Why is the last prayer missing?

[@MarvelsofChristendom]

The Oremus part of the Litany is not indispensable and can be excluded. It is normally chanted by a Priest in Rectus Tonus.
