Mary, Mother of God


In perils, in anxieties, in doubts,
think of Mary, call on Mary,
let not her name depart from thy lips
nor her thoughts from thy heart.
If she holds thee, thou shalt not fall;
if she protects thee, thou shalt not fail or fear;
if she leads thee, thou shalt not be weary.

[St Bernard]
