(September 29)
Oh, Most Holy Lady, Virgin Mother of God, highest Cherub and Most Honest Seraphim, God's chosen Youth! Look down from the heavenly heights with Your merciful eye on us, Your unworthy servants, praying with tenderness and tears before Your Most Pure Image; do not deprive us of Your intercession and protection of the Sovereign in this earthly journey, many-sorrowful and much-rebellious. Save us in the destruction and sorrow of beings, raise us from the depths of sin, enlighten our minds, darkened by passions, and heal the ulcers of our souls and bodies! Oh, All-Generous Mother of the Humane-loving Lord!
Surprise us with Your rich mercy, strengthen our weak will to do the commandments of Christ, soften our hardened hearts with love for God and our neighbors, grant We have heartfelt contrition and true repentance, so that, having been cleansed from the filth of sin, we may be granted a peaceful Christian death and a good answer at the Terrible and impartial Judgment of the Lord Our Jesus Christ, to Him, together with His Eternal Father and the Most Holy, Good and Life-Giving Spirit, is due all glory, honor and worship, now and ever and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
