O Mary Immaculate Queen, look down
upon this distressed and suffering world.
You know our misery and our weakness.
O you who are our Mother, saving us in the hour of peril,
have compassion on us in these days of great and heavy trial.
Jesus has confided to you the treasure of His grace,
and through you He wills to grant us pardon and mercy.
In these hours of anguish, therefore, your children
come to you as their hope.
