3 Miraculous Marian Prayer for Protection, Hope and Grace
In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
Hail Mary, Full of Grace, The Lord is with thee. Blessed
art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb,
Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of our death. AMEN
‘Holy Mary, if thou wilt, hear thy suppliant; I put myself under the
shelter of thy shield. When falling in the slippery path, thou art my
smooth supporting hand staff. There is no hound in fleetness or in
chase, north wind or rapid river, as quick as the Mother of Christ
to the bed of death, to those who are entitled to her kindle protection.’
‘O mother Mary, my Mother, I kneel before you with heavy heart. The burden
of my sins oppresses me. The knowledge of my weakness discourages me.
I am beset by fear and temptation of every sort. Yet I am so attached to
the things of this world that instead of longing for Heaven I am filled
with dread at the thought of death.
O Mother of Mercy, have pity on me in my distress. You are all-powerful
with your Divine Son. He can refuse no request of your Immaculate Heart.
Show yourself a true Mother to me by being my advocate before His
throne. O Refuge of Sinners and Hope of Hopeless, to whom shall I turn
if not you? Obtain for me, then, O Mother of Hope, the grace of true
sorrow for my sins, the gift of perfect resignation to God’s Holy Will,
and the courage to take up my cross and follow Him.
But above all I pray, O dearest Mother, that through your most powerful
intercession, my heart may be filled with Holy Hope, so that in life’s
darkest hour I may never fail to trust in God my Saviour, but by walking
in the way of His Prayer in the spirit and power. Amen
Glory be, to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
a world without end. AMEN
