O Virgin, fair as the
moon,
delight of the angels
and saints in heaven,
grant that we may
become like you
and that our souls may
receive a ray of your beauty,
which does not decline
with the years
but shines forth into
eternity.
O Mary, sun of
heaven,
restore life where
there is death
and enlighten spirits
where there is darkness.
Turn your countenance
to your children
and radiate on us your
light and your fervor.
O Mary, powerful as an
army,
grant victory to our
ranks.
We are very weak
and our enemy rages
with uttermost conceit.
But under your
banner
we are confident of
overcoming him.
Save us, O Mary,
fair as the moon,
bright as the sun,
awe inspiring as an
army set in battle array\n\n
and sustained not by
hatred
but by the ardor of
love.
\n\n
Amen.
