Chaplet to Our Lady of Mercy

Our Lady of Mercy - a Chaplet [of three decades]
In the beginning:
Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy; our life, our sweetness and our hope! To you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve. To you do we send our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn, then, most gracious advocate, your eyes of mercy toward us; and after this, our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
On the large beads:
Mary, Mother of Grace and Mother of Mercy, protect us from our enemies and receive us at the hour of death.
On the small beads:
Mary, Mother of Mercy, help us to see Jesus. (10x)
Concluding Prayer:
You open your arms wide before us, Most Merciful Mother, and extend your hands filled with every grace and gift.
Your motherly heart longs to bestow on us everything that we need.
Please teach us, help us to know purity of heart "so that we may see God" and carry Jesus to this world.
In Jesus, protect us, and guide us to everlasting life. Amen.
