Regina Coeli (Caeli)
Queen of Heaven, Rejoice!
Queen of Heaven, rejoice! Alleluia!
For the Son thou wast privileged to bear, Alleluia!
Is risen as He said. Alleluia!
Pray for us to God. Alleluia!
Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, Alleluia!
For the Lord is truly risen. Alleluia.
Let us pray:
O God, who gave joy to the world through the resurrection
of Thy Son our Lord Jesus Christ, grant, we beseech thee,
that through the intercession of the Virgin Mary, his Mother,
we may obtain the joys of everlasting life: Through the
same Christ our Lord. Amen.+
Hail, Holy Queen
Hail, Holy Queen, mother of mercy, our life, our sweetness
and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children
of Eve. To thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and
weeping in this valley of tears. Turn then, most gracious
advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this, our
exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
V. Pray for us, O holy mother of God:
R. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Let us pray:
Almighty and everlasting God, by the cooperation of the
Holy Spirit thou hast prepared the body and soul of Mary,
glorious Virgin and Mother, to become the worthy
habitation of Thy Son; Grant that by her gracious
intercession, in whose commemoration we rejoice, we
may be delivered from present evils and from everlasting
death. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
V. May divine assistance remain with us always.
R. Amen.
This prayer replaces the Angelus prayer said in the Afternoon during Easter until Pentecost.
