The Glories Of Mary
by ST. ALPHONSUS LIGUORI
PRAYER TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN TO OBTAIN A GOOD DEATH
|
OH Mary, sweet refuge of miserable sinners, at
the moment when my soul departs from this
world, my sweetest mother, by the grief that
thou didst endure when thou wast present at the
death of thy Son upon the cross, then assist me
with thy mercy. Ketp far from me my infernal
enemies, and come thyself to take my soul and
present it to my eternal Judge. Do not abandon me, oh my queen. Thou, next to Jesus, must
be my comfort in that dreadful moment. Entreat thy Son that in his goodness, he will grant
me the favor to die clasping thy feet, and to
breathe out my soul in his sacred wounds, saying, Jesus and Mary, I give you my heart and my
soul.
