O Most Blessed Mother,
heart of love, heart of mercy,
ever listening, caring, consoling,
hear my prayer.
As your child, I implore your intercession
with Jesus your Son.
Receive with understanding and compassion
the petitions I place before you today.
I am comforted in knowing
your heart is ever open
to those who ask for your prayer.
I trust to your gentle care and intercession,
those whom I love and who are sick
or lonely or hurting.
Help all of us, Holy Mother,
to bear our burdens in this life
until we may share eternal life
and peace with God forever.
Amen.
