Mary Help of Christians |
OUR LADY HELP OF CHRISTIANS - SEVENTH DAY
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that
never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help,
and sought your intercession, was left unaided, inspired with this confidence I
fly unto you; O Virgin of virgins, my Mother! To you I come, before you I
stand, sinful and sorrowful, O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my
petitions, but in your mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
PRAYER
O Virgin Most Holy, powerful help of Christians,
I confidently appeal to the throne of your mercy. Hear the prayers of this poor
sinner that begs your help, so I may always flee from sin and from the
occasions of sin. Behold the first grace that I ask from this novena. Amen.
O Mary, gracious and merciful Mother, by your efficacious intercession, you have saved Christians from plagues and other bodily scourges, help me and deliver me from the disease of impiety and irreligion which creeps into my soul in many ways to turn me away from the Church and the practices of religion. I implore you; watch over the good that they may persevere, strengthen the weak and call poor sinners to repentance, that truth and the Kingdom of Jesus Christ may triumph here on earth, so that Your glory and the number of the elect may be increased in Heaven.
Mary, powerful Virgin, Thou art the mighty and
glorious protector of holy Church; thou art the marvelous help of Christians;
thou art terrible as an army in battle array; thou alone hast destroyed every
heresy in the whole world. In the midst
of our anguish, our struggles and our distress defend us from the power of the
enemy and at the hour of our death receive our souls in paradise. Amen.
Our Father (3x)
Our Father, Who art in heaven Hallowed be Thy
Name; Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us
this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those
who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from
evil. Amen
Hail Mary (3x)
Hail Mary, full of grace. Our Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy
Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
Glory Be (3x)
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the
Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world
without end. Amen.
Hail Holy Queen (1x)
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. Amen.
Mary, Help of Christians, Pray for us.
O Almighty and Merciful God, you have given the
Blessed Virgin Mary to all Christians as their everlasting Protectress,
graciously grant now, that, strengthened by Her aid and striving onward in
life, I may be victorious over the wicked one in the hour of my death. Through
Christ our Lord. Amen.
