** Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy!
Our life, our sweetness, and our hope!
To thee do we cry, poor banished
children of Eve, to thee do we send
up our sighs, mourning and weeping
in this valley, of tears.
Turn, then, most gracious advocate,
thine eyes of mercy toward us; and
after this our exile show unto us the
blessed fruit of thy womb Jesus;
O clement, O loving, O sweet virgin Mary
Pray for us, O holy Mother of God
That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.**
Oh Mary our Mother, Queen of Peace, Mother of God, Mother of Good Counsel, I place J and her whole family in your loving care to protect and guide in every way always. Amen ✞
