(February 18)
Oh, Most Holy and Blessed Virgin, Lady Theotokos, Helper of sinners and Seeker of the lost! Look with Your merciful eye on us, standing before Your holy icon and praying to You with tenderness: raise us from the depths of sin, enlighten our minds, darkened by passions, and heal ulcers our souls and bodies. There are no other help, no other hope, except You, Lady: You weigh all our weaknesses and sins. We resort to You and cry: do not leave us with Your Heavenly help, but appear to us ever and with Your ineffable mercy and bounty, save and have mercy on us who are perishing. Grant us correction of our sinful life and deliver us from sorrows, troubles and illnesses, from sudden death, hell and eternal torment. For You, Queen and Lady, are the quick Helper and Intercessor of all who flow to You and the strong refuge of repentant sinners.
Grant us, O Most Blessed and All-Immaculate Virgin, the Christian end of our life to be peaceful and shameless, and grant us, through Your intercession, to dwell in the abodes of Heaven, where The unceasing voice of those celebrating with joy glorifies the Most Holy Trinity, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
