Benedict XVI closed the prayer vigil before the beatification of Pope John Paul II with a prayer composed by the new Blessed Virgin of Lourdes for






Hail Mary, poor and humble woman,

blessed the Most High !
Virgin of hope, dawn of the new era, we associate
your
song of praise to celebrate the Lord's mercy,
to announce the coming of the Kingdom
and the full liberation of man.



Hail Mary, lowly handmaid of the Lord,
glorious Mother of Christ!
Faithful Virgin, holy dwelling of the Word, teach
to persevere in listening to the Word,
to be docile to the voice of the Spirit,
attentive to their calls in the privacy of conscience and their manifestations in the events of history.



Hail Mary, Woman of pain,
Mother of the living!
Virgin spouse beneath the Cross, the new Eve, Be our guide
the ways of the world,
teach us to live and spread the love of Christ,
to stay with you next to
innumerable crosses on which your Son is still crucified.



Hail Mary, Woman faithful disciple
First!
Virgin Mother of the Church
always help us to give reason for hope in us
relying on human goodness and love of the Father.


Teach us to build the world from the inside:
in the depths of silence and prayer,
in the joy of fraternal love,
in the unique fruitfulness of the cross.

Holy Mary, Mother of believers,
Pray for us.
Amen.
