Prayer to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, our Mother and our Mediatrix
Motherly refuge, O Queen of the universe and Mediatrix between God and men, Mother of love, of sorrows and of mercy, consolation and refuge of all our hopes, although Your heart is broken by so many scorns and outrages, You still deign to be propitious to us. Obtain for us, unworthy and ungrateful sons, we beg You with great faith and filial trust, the grace to be delivered from the sins that kill souls and lead the world to ruin.
O merciful and gracious Mother, we acknowledge that we have crowned with thorns Your divine Son, Jesus, our Redeemer, and that we have inflicted countless wounds on Your tender Heart. Because of this, we have deserved the scourges of Divine Justice; but now repentant, we invoke Your protection and help by taking refuge in Your maternal Heart, the only shelter in the whirlwind that ravages the world.
With prayer for our own salvation, graciously accept our fervent supplication for reparation for the many offenses, which so many ungrateful sons commit at all hours of the day and night, that, enlightened and drawn by Thy maternal love, they too may find, refuge and salvation.
O Mary, Queen of Heaven and earth, Mother of God, our Mother and Mediatrix, You who are all-powerful with God and who want our salvation, in this sad and dark hour which overwhelms this miserable and tormented humanity, among the growing and threatening forces of evil, bring down, we pray Thee with all our faith, the light of Thy maternal love upon the whole world and, in particular, into hearts unfaithful and hardened by sin, that all of us, united as in one heart in faith and in the love of the divine Heart of Jesus, we may sing throughout the earth the triumph of Thy motherly Mercy. Amen.
Maternal Refuge, O Queen of the world and Mediatrix between God and men, Mother of love, sorrow and mercy, consolation and refuge in all our hopes, although Your Heart was broken by so much scorn and so many outrages, You deign to be favorable to us once again. Obtain for us, Your unworthy and ungrateful children, we beseech You with great faith and filial confidence, the grace to be delivered from sin, which kills souls and leads the world to its ruin.
O clement and merciful Mother, we acknowledge that we have crowned with thorns Your divine Son Jesus, our Redeemer, and have torn Your tender Heart with countless wounds. Because of this, we deserve the scourges of divine Justice; but now we repent, and we invoke Your protection and Your aid while taking refuge in Your maternal Heart, sole haven in the whirlwind that is ravaging the world.
With prayer for our own salvation, also kindly accept our fervent petition of reparation for the many offenses committed every hour of the day and night by so many ungrateful children, so that, enlightened and attracted by Your maternal love, they too may find refuge and salvation.
O Mary, Queen of Heaven and earth, Mother of God, our Mother and our Mediatrix, You who are almighty with God and who desire our salvation, in this dark, sorrowful hour which is submerging a miserable, tormented humanity, amid the growing threatening forces of evil, we pray to You with all our faith, bring down the light of Your maternal love upon the whole world, and especially into hearts unfaithful and hardened by sin, so that, all united with one heart in faith and in the love of the divine Heart of Jesus, we may sing over all the earth, the triumph of Your maternal Mercy. Amen.
