279. Prayer to Our Lady, Mother of Confidence. 2
200 Days, once a day.
(See Instructions, p. 1.)
O IMMACULATE Mary, when we venerate thee under the gracious title of Mother of Confidence, how our hearts overflow with the sweetest consolation, how we are moved to hope for every good gift from thee! That such a name should have been given to thee is a sign that none have recourse to thee in vain. Receive, then, with a mother’s compassion these acts of homage, with which we earnestly pray thee to be propitious to us in every necessity. Above all we ask thee to make us live ever united to thee and thy divine Son JESUS. 1 Under thy escort we shall safely walk along the straight road; and so shall it be our lot to hear on the last day of our lives those consoling words: Come, O faithful servant, enter into the joy of thy LORD. Amen.
- N.B.—Clerics, in order to gain this indulgence, must insert the following words: “and since in his goodness thy Son has chosen us to labour in his mystical vineyard, do thou, who desirest a rich harvest, bestow thy special care on us miserable creatures, that our work may be abundantly fruitful.”
- 279 Leo XIII, January 26, 1901.
