Matins 6 A.M.



 

At Matins

Come, my lips, and wide proclaim

The Blessed Virgin’s spotless fame.

O Lady, make speed to befriend me.

From the hands of the enemy mightily defend me.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.

As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Alleluia.

Hail, Queen of the heavens!

Hail, Mistress of earth!

Hail, Virgin most pure,

Of immaculate birth!

Clear star of the morning,

In beauty enshrined!

O Lady, make speed

To the help of mankind.

Thee God in the depth

Of eternity chose;

And formed thee all fair

As his glorious spouse.

And called thee his Word’s

Own mother to be,

By whom he created

The earth, sky, and sea. Amen.

God elected her, and pre-elected her.

He made her to dwell in his tabernacle.

O Lady, recommend my prayer.

And let my cry come unto thee.

Let us pray.

Holy Mary, Queen of heaven, Mother of our Lord Jesus Christ, and Mistress of the world, who forsakest no one, and despisest no one; look upon me, O Lady, with an eye of pity, and entreat for me, of thy beloved Son, the forgiveness of all my sins; that, as I now celebrate with devout affection thy holy and immaculate conception, so hereafter I may receive the prize of eternal blessedness, by the grace of him whom thou, in virginity, didst bring forth, Jesus Christ our Lord: who, with the Father and the Holy Ghost, liveth and reigneth, in perfect unity, God, world without end. Amen.

O Lady, recommend my prayer.

And let my cry come unto thee.

Let us bless the Lord.

Thanks be to God.

May the souls of the faithful, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
