Morning prayers 12 June 2019: Devotion to Mary

O mighty Mother of God and my Mother Mary, it is true that I am not even worthy of mentioning you, but You love me and desire my salvation.

Grant me, although my language is unclean, to always be able to call your most holy and most powerful name in my defense, because your name is the help of those who live and the salvation of those who die.

Mary most pure, Mary most sweet, grant me the grace that your name is from now on the breath of my life. Lady, do not delay in helping me every time I call you, since in all temptations and in all my needs I do not want to stop invoking you always repeating: Maria, Maria.

So I want to do during my life and I particularly hope in the hour of death, to come to praise your beloved name eternally in Heaven: "O lenient, or pious, or sweet Virgin Mary".

Mary, most amiable Mary, what comfort, what sweetness, what trust, what tenderness my soul feels, even just in saying your name, or just thinking of you! I thank my God and Lord who gave you this lovable and powerful name for my good.

O Lady, it is not enough for me to name you sometimes, I want to invoke you more often for love; I want love to remind me to call you every hour, so that I too can exclaim together with Saint Anselmo: "O name of the Mother of God, you are my love!".

My dear Mary, my beloved Jesus, your sweet Names always live in mine and in all hearts. My mind will forget all the others, to remember only and forever to invoke your adored Names.

My Redeemer Jesus and Mother my Mary, when the time of my death has come, when the soul must leave the body, then grant me, for your merits, the grace to pronounce the last words saying and repeating: “Jesus and Mary I love you, Jesus and Mary give you my heart and soul ”.
