Worship of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Come, let us worship our queen, the Mother of God. Come, let us worship the Virgin Mary, our queen, the Mother of God. Come, let us bow and fall before the Lady Virgin Mary herself, our queen, the Mother of God. I bow to you, Most Holy Theotokos, who by your birth showed us the true Light, queen of heaven and earth, hope for the hopeless, helper to the helpless and intercessor to all sinners; Cover me and intercede from all troubles and needs of the soul and body, and be me, I pray, an intercessor with your holy prayers. I worship your sinless conception and birth from your holy parents Joachim and Anna and I pray to you, my lady: let me begin a sinless life and arouse repentance in me. I adore your entry into the church of the Lord, three-year-old girl, and I pray to you, my light: make me, through your prayers, a temple of the Holy Spirit. I adore your annunciation, O Most Holy Virgin, when by the action of the Holy Spirit, at the voice of the archangel, she conceived the Word of the Father, and I pray to you, my light: to bring salvation to the desperate one. I adore your birth, when you incarnated and gave birth to Christ the Savior to the world and became the Mother of God, glorified and exalted by all creation, and I pray to you, my light: show yourself to me as a merciful Mother, both now and in the age to come. I adore your cleansing, undefiled, unblasphemous, incorruptible, most holy, and I pray to you, my light: cleanse me from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit with your prayers. I worship and honor your illnesses that you endured during the free passion of your Son, when Simeon’s prophecy came true: “You yourself, a weapon will pierce your soul,” and I pray to you, my light: deliver me from bodily and mental illness. I bow to you, lady, remembering your joy that you had during the resurrection of your Son, and I pray to you, my light: lull my carnal passions with your help. Most Holy Lady Theotokos! Accept this small prayer and bring it to your Son and our God, may He save and enlighten you for the sake of our souls. Looking at your most holy image, as the true Mother of God, I behold you with heartfelt faith and fall with spiritual love, I worship you with the Eternal Child held in your arms, our Lord Jesus Christ, I honor and pray to you with tears: cover me with your cover from enemies visible and invisible: for you brought the human race into the kingdom of heaven. Amen. After this, “It is worthy to eat as truly.”
