PRAYER TO OUR LADY OF THIS HOUSE

 

PRAYER TO OUR LADY OF THIS HOUSE

O sweet and gentle Lady, Immaculate Mother of God, we choose Thee this day to be the Mistress and Lady of this house.

Guard it, dear Mother from pestilence, fire, lightning, and tempests; from schisms and heresies, from depredations of burglars and the malice of enemies.

Protect its inmates, sweet Mary; watch over their going out and their coming in, and preserve them from sudden death.

Keep us from all sin and harm, and pray for us to God, that we may live in His service and depart this life in His grace.

Amen.
