Prayers for Mother Mary For the days of the week
For Tuesday
MOST holy Mary, Mother of Goodness, Mother of Mercy, when I
reflect upon my sins and upon the moment of my death, I tremble and am
confounded. O my sweetest Mother, in the blood of Jesus, in thy intercession,
are my hopes.
Comforter of the sad, abandon me not at that hour; fail not to
console me in that affliction.
If even now I am so tormented by remorse for the
sins I have committed, the uncertainty of my pardon, the danger of a relapse,
and the strictness of the Judgment, how will it be with me then?
O my Mother, before death overtakes me, obtain for me great
sorrow for my sins, a true amendment, and constant fidelity to God for the
remainder of my life. And when at length my hour has come, then do thou, Mary,
my hope, be my aid in those great troubles wherewith my soul will be
encompassed.
Strengthen me, that I may not despair when the enemy sets my sins
before my face. Obtain for me at that moment grace to invoke thee often, so
that with thy sweet name and that of thy most holy Son upon my lips I may
breathe forth my spirit.
This grace thou hast granted to many of thy servants;
this, too, is my hope and my desire.
Amen
