Calling in the Big Guns

Remember, Oh Most Gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to Your protection, implored Your help, or sought Your intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly to You, Oh Virgin of Virgins, my Mother. To You I come, before You I stand, sinful and sorrowful. Oh Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitons, but in Your mercy, hear and answer me.

Hail Mary, full of Grace! The Lord is with Thee. Blessed are you amoung 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. Gentle Mother, quiet light, Morning Star, so soft and bright. Gentle Woman, Peaceful Dove, teach us Wisdom, Teach us Love.

Amen.
