A powerful invocation to the Mother of God for special protection and graces

Holy Immaculate Virgin and my mother Mary,
to you who are the Mother of my Lord,
the queen of the world,
the advocate, the hope, the refuge of sinners,
I resort to being the most miserable of all.
I thank you for how many graces you have given me so far,
especially to have freed me from hell
that I have deserved so many times.
I love you, most amiable Lady,
and for the love that I bring you I promise you
to always want to serve you and to do everything I can,
that you may also be loved by others.
I put all my hopes in you,
all my salvation;
accept me for your servant
and welcome me under your mantle,
o Mother of mercy.
And since you are so powerful with God,
free me from all temptations;
or get me the strength to overcome them to the death.
Don't leave me until you see me
already saved in heaven to bless you and to sing
your mercies for all eternity. Amen.

(Sant'Alfonso Maria de 'Liguori)
