Blessed be the Name of Jesus.
Blessed be His Most Sacred Heart.

Blessed be Jesus in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar.
Blessed be the Holy Spirit, the Paraclete.
Blessed be the great Mother of God, Mary most Holy.
Blessed be her Holy and Immaculate Conception.
Blessed be her Glorious Assumption.
Blessed be the name of Mary, Virgin and Mother.
Blessed be Saint Joseph, her most chaste spouse.
Blessed be God in His Angels and in His Saints. Amen.

About the prayer
They were later attached to Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament, where they are said after the blessing while the monstrance is still on the altar. Popes added lines over time — the Precious Blood by Pius VII, the Assumption by Pius XII, and St. Joseph by Benedict XV.
