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, mournings, and weepings in this valley of tears
Turn then, most gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy towards us
And after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus
Oh clement, oh loving, oh sweet, Virgin Mary
Pray for us, oh Holy Mother of God
That we may be made worthy of promises of Christ
Amen
Oh, Saint Joseph
Whose protection is so great, so prompt, so strong
Before the throne of God
i place You all my interests and desires
Oh, Saint Joseph, do assist me by your powerful intercession
And obtain for me all spiritual blessings through Jesus Christ, our Lord
So that, having engaged here below your Heavenly power
i may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of fathers
Oh, Saint Joseph, i never weary of contemplating you
And Jesus asleep in your arms
i dare not approach while He reposes near your heart
Press Him in my name, and kiss His fine head for me
And ask Him to return the kiss when i draw my dying breath
Saint Joseph, Patron of Departing Souls, pray for me
Amen
PATER NOSTER,
qui es in caelis,
sanctificetur nomen tuum.
Adveniat regnum tuum.
Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra.
Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie,
et dimitte nobis debita nostra
sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris.
Et ne nos inducas in tentationem,
sed libera nos a malo. Amen.
