For the Sake of Our Country: 2 Litanies for the Conversion of America
It has never been such as an opportune time as now, to pray these Litanies for the Conversion of America. We should always pray for the United States of America.
Our country seems to be spiraling into a very dark place. There is no doubt that there are spiritual forces involved.
People don’t know how to respond as Catholics to the current cultural revolution. They bow down to the secular powers as if they’ve forgotten how great a God we serve. They mistake the secular social justice agenda for charity.
To make it worse, our Catholic leaders suffer from a serious lack of fortitude. We’ve forgotten how to be martyrs for the faith. We value our temporal lives, more than we value eternal life.
We need prayers – not just for our leaders, but for the faithful. We need discernment to know how we can best share and take a stand for our faith.
Without conversion, our country is lost. 2 Chronicle 2 says:
“And my people, upon whom my name is called, being converted, shall make supplication to me, and seek out my face, and do penance for their most wicked ways: then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sins and will heal their land. “
We should be kneeling to God, not other human beings. If we humble ourselves before God, acknowledge our sin and try our best to amend our lives, God will deliver us and bless us as a nation.
Referring to a sick man, Thomas Aquinas said:
“In the life of the body a man is sometimes sick, and unless he takes medicine, he will die. Even so in the spiritual life a man is sick on account of sin. For that reason he needs medicine so that he may be restored to health; and this grace is bestowed in the Sacrament of Penance.”
We can apply the same principle to the United States. Until we repent from sin and turn to God for our medicine, we shall surely die. But if we return to God, we will be restored to health.
Here are two beautiful litanies to pray for America: the Litany for the Conversion of America and the Litany on Behalf of our Country.

Litany on Behalf of Our Country
The following Litany was originally prayed by English Catholics in 1840, but can be prayed as a litany for the conversion of America.
Lord, have mercy on us.
Christ, have mercy on us.
God the Father of heaven, have mercy on us.
God the Son, Redeemer of the world, have mercy on us.
God the Holy Ghost, have mercy on us.
Holy Trinity, one God, have mercy on us.
O God, who hast been pleased to magnify Thy name amongst our ancestors, and to distinguish them by the particular marks of their piety, continue the same mercy to us, we beseech Thee: that now, in these days, we may seek Thee with all our hearts, and zealously labour to copy the examples which our forefathers have left us. Amen.
For this end, we most humbly implore Thy goodness to have compassion on this our country, and by Thy powerful grace to remove from it whatever is provoking or displeasing to Thee.
Have mercy, O God, on this nation. And be Thou its powerful deliverer.
From infidelity and profaneness,
Deliver us, O Lord. *
From all irreligion, and contempt of Thy sacred mysteries, *
From all presumption, and the abuse of Thy holy word, *
From all heresies and schisms, *
From gluttony and drunkenness, *
From the profanation of Thy holy name, in cursing and swearing, *
From all kinds of prodigality and sensuality, *
From frauds, and all kinds of oppression and injustice, *
From the spirit of faction, of malice, hatred, and every kind of uncharitableness, *
O God, Thou hast been a Father to this nation, and replenished it with many blessings. –Forsake it not now, we beseech Thee, and give it not up to a reprobate sense.
Bless this people, O Lord, and be Thou their inheritance.–And sanctify us, and make us a holy nation.
Give to all its inhabitants, O Lord, the spirit of the gospel.
Hear us, O Lord. **
Give to them a zeal for unity, peace, and truth. **
Grant that they may all seek the things that are above, and walk by the spirit of Christ. **
Grant that all who are in error may, by thy heavenly light, be led into Thy truth. **
Grant that all sinners may be truly converted, and, forsaking their evil ways, return to thee their God. **
Grant that all scandals may be removed. **
Grant that the pastors may become the light of the world. **
Grant that all magistrates may administer justice. **
Grant that all of the wealthier ranks may esteem virtue their greatest honour, and be ashamed of vice. **
Grant that the youth of both sexes may be withheld from all evil ways, and that they may dedicate their lives to virtue, piety, and religion. **
Grant that all obstinacy and blindness may be removed from the hearts of this people, and that, being reformed according to Thy blessed will, they may serve Thee in holiness and truth. **
Hear us, O Lord, now calling on thee.–And, through the infinite merits of thy only Son, grant our petitions.

From the diary of St Faustina…this always brings me so much peace..I hope it can do the same so those who read it as well.
When I see that the burden is beyond my strength, I do not consider or analyze it or probe into it, but I run like a child to the Heart of Jesus and say only one word to Him: “You can do all things.” And then I keep silent, because I know that Jesus Himself will intervene in the matter, and as for me, instead of tormenting myself, I use that time to love Him.” (1033, page 392)
