A Prayer of St. Bernard of Clairvaux To The Blessed Virgin

A Prayer of St. Bernard of Clairvaux

O Blessed Virgin, 

Grant that we may come 

To Thy Son through Thee, 

Who hast found grace, engendered life, 

And Thou art the Mother of salvation. 

Grant that He may receive us through Thee, 

He to whom we were given through Thee. 

May Thy wholesomeness 

Excuse our corruption before Him; 

May Thy humility, so agreeable to God, 

Obtain pardon for our vanity; 

May the abundance of Thy charity 

Cover the multitude of our sins; 

And may Thy glorious fruitfulness, 

Cause in us the fruitfulness of merit.

Oh, our Sovereign Lady, 

Our Mediatrix, our Advocate: 

Reconcile us with Thy Son; 

Recommend us to Thy Son; 

Present us to Thy Son! 

O Blessed Virgin, 

Through the grace which 

Thou hast found before God, 

Through the favor which Thou didst merit, 

Through the mercy which He hast granted Thee, 

Grant that He, who, through Thee 

Deigned to partake of our infirmity and misery, 

May make us, through Thee, 

Share in His glory and beatitude: 

Jesus Christ, Thy Son and Our Lord, 

Who is above all, God blessed forever and ever. 

Amen.

Ask The Blessed Blessed Virgin Mary To Protect You From All Evil With This Powerful Prayer

SAINT JOHN VIANNEY PRAYER OF PROTECTION TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY

Marian Prayer written by the Curé of Ars:

O most holy Virgin, Mary, who evermore stands before the most holy Trinity, and to whom it is granted at all times to pray for us to your most beloved Son; pray for in all my necessities; help me, protect me, and obtain for me the pardon of all my sins. Help me especially at my last hour; and when I can no longer give any sign of the use of reason, then encourage me, make the sign of the cross for me, and fight for me against the enemy. Make in my name a profession of faith; favor me with a testimony of my salvation, and never let me despair of the mercy of God. Help me to overthrow the tempting enemy.

When I can no longer say: “Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, I place my soul in your hands,” I ask you to say it to me; when I can longer hear human words of consolation, comfort me. Leave me not before I have been judged, and if I have to atone for my sins in purgatory, pray for me earnestly; and admonish my friends to procure for me a speedy enjoyment of the blessed vision of God. Lessen my sufferings, deliver me speedily, and lead my soul into heaven with you: that, united with all the elect, I may there bless and praise my God and you for all eternity.

Amen.

A PRAYER TO SAINT BENEDICT FOR PROTECTION

Dear Saint Benedict, I thank God for showering you with His grace to love Him above all else and to establish a monastic rule that has helped so many of His children live full and holy lives. Through the cross of Jesus Christ, I ask you to please intercede that God might protect me, my loved ones, my home, property, possessions, and workplace today and always by your holy blessing, that we may never be separated from Jesus, Mary, and the company of all the blessed. Through your intercession may we be delivered from temptation, spiritual oppression, physical ills, and disease.

The Magnificat

Magnificat is also called Canticle of Mary or Ode of the Theotokos, in Christianity, the hymn of praise by Mary, the mother of Jesus, found in Luke 1:46–55... In Scripture, the hymn is found after the jubilant meeting of Mary, pregnant with Jesus, and her relative Elizabeth, pregnant with St. John the Baptist.The Magnificat, or the Canticle of Mary, is the song that Mary prayed while visiting Elizabeth.

It is also known as the Canticle of Mary in the Liturgy of the Hours, a special collection of scripture readings, psalms, and hymns that constitute what is known as the prayer of the church. It can be recited as well as sung.

The Magnificat provides great material for meditation on the Visitation, the second Joyful Mystery of the Rosary.Mary, in hastening to help her cousin, is focused on service to others. In this way she glorifies the Lord in reflecting by becoming the Mother of God she will help Him redeem us for our salvation in His Passion!

The Magnificat
My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior; Because He has regarded the lowliness of His handmaid; for behold, henceforth all generations shall call me blessed; Because He who is mighty has done great things for me, and Holy is His Name; And His mercy is from generation to generation on those who fear Him. He has shown might with His arm, He has scattered the proud in the conceit of their heart. He has put down the mighty from their thrones, and has exalted the lowly. He has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent away empty. He has given help to Israel, His servant, mindful of His mercy - Even as He spoke to our father - to Abraham and to his posterity forever.

AMEN.
