Novena to our Lady of Perpetual Help ( June 18 - 26)

See at Thy feet, blessed and Holy Mother of Perpetual Help,
a poor sinner who has recourse to Thee
and confides in Thee.

O Mother of Mercy, have pity on me!
I hear Thee being called the refuge
and the hope of sinners;
be my refuge and my hope.

Help me, for the love of Jesus Christ;
stretch forth Thy hand to a poor fallen creature
who recommends himself (herself) to Thee,
and who devotes himself (herself) to Thy service forever.
I bless and thank Almighty God,
who in His mercy had given me this confidence in Thee,
which I hold to be a pledge of my eternal salvation.

Holy Mary, tender Mother, help me.
Mother of Perpetual Help,
never allow me to lose my God. Amen.

Our Father..Hail Mary..Glory Be ( three times)

Oh Mother of Perpetual Help, grant that I may ever invoke Thy most powerful Name, which is the safeguard of the living and the salvation of the dying. O Purest Mary, O Sweetest Mary, let Thy Name henceforth be ever on my lips.

Delay not, O Blessed Lady, to help me whenever I call on Thee, for, in all my temptations, in all my needs, I shall never cease to call on Thee, ever repeating Thy sacred Name, Mary, Mary.

Oh what consolation, what sweetness, what confidence, what emotion fill my soul when I utter Thy sacred Name, or even only think of Thee. I thank God for having given Thee, for my good, so sweet, so powerful, so lovely a Name.

But I will not be content with merely uttering Thy Name; let my hope for Thee prompt me ever to hail Thee, Mother of Perpetual Help. Amen
