O Almighty and merciful God!
You have given the Church
a wondrous help and defense
in the most holy Virgin Mary
and You have honored Her sacred image
as the Black Madonna with remarkable
veneration of the faithful.
Grant in Your mercy that,
under Her protection, we may
struggle confidently throughout our lives
and at the moment of death
be victorious over our enemy.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
