O Mary, under your patronage
we find peace in the midst of earthly tribulation.
You are the quiet certainty of the strong soul,
ever on guard against the enemy.
You are the sanctuary of the pure
who remain unstained by earth’s corruption.
And just as, with you,
we find peace during the present life,
so shall we find with you,
when the days of our pilgrimage are over,
everlasting peace in the world to come.
Amen.
