About This Prayer
The Litany of Trust is a modern Catholic prayer composed by Sr. Faustina Maria Pia, S.V., of the Sisters of Life. It flows from the Divine Mercy devotion and the powerful invocation: “Jesus, I Trust in You.” Each line of the litany names a fear, doubt, or lie that can hold us back from God’s love, followed by a plea for Jesus to deliver us. The second half of the litany affirms truths about Christ’s love and providence, with the response: “Jesus, I Trust in You.”
Though relatively new, the Litany of Trust has spread quickly and is now prayed by Catholics worldwide. It offers a simple yet profound way to deepen one’s relationship with Christ, reminding the faithful that trust—not fear or control—draws us closest to Him.
