Night Litany for Moncton
Adapted from Night Litany for London

Commendation by the Bishop of London Father H.A. Wilson of S. Augustine, Haggerston was a great spiritual force during his life-time and it is interesting that since his death he still continues to influence the prayers of Christian people.
I have been much moved by the Night Litany for London which it is believed he composed and gladly commend it for the use of faithful people. I have no doubt that it will help those who pray and those who are prayed for.

O God our Father, hear us. We plead before Thee the sacred heart of Jesus for all in this great city of Moncton who need tonight thy merciful love and protection.
On souls beset by temptation, have mercy.
On those who are in deadly sin, have mercy.
On those who have fallen into sin, have mercy.
On those who are given up to worldliness and are forgetful of thee, have mercy.
On those who at this moment are in danger of losing thee for ever, have mercy.
On those who are tempting others, have mercy.   
On all who are out tonight; the homeless, the weary, the starving, the suicides, the drunkards; have mercy.
On all those who are out to rescue from sin, have mercy.
On all who work tonight, have mercy.
On the sick and suffering, have mercy.
On all those undergoing operations, have mercy.
On those who cannot sleep tonight, have mercy.
On those in anxiety and distress, have mercy.
On all children who cry tonight, have mercy.
On the insane, have mercy.
On all night-nurses, have mercy.
On all doctors and priests called out tonight, have mercy.
On those who tonight suffer bereavement, have mercy.
On those for whom this will be their last night on earth, have mercy.
On those dying tonight without priest or sacrament, have mercy.
On those dying rejecting the ministry of Holy Church, have mercy.
On those dying unconscious, have mercy.
On those who are afraid to die, have mercy.
On all dying priest, religious, and communicants, have mercy.

On the faithful departed, have mercy.
On ourselves in our last hour, have mercy.
On behalf of all people of Moncton who have said no prayers today, let us say:
OUR FATHER

On behalf of all people of Moncton who are ignorant or neglectful of the Blessed Sacrament, let us say;
