Foreword and Indulgences CLICK HERE: Foreword

Come. Father of the poor.
Come, treasures which endures,
Come, Light of all Who live!

The Gift of Fear

The gift of Fear fills us
with a sovereign respect for God
and makes us dread nothing as much,
as to offend Him by sin.
It is a fear which arises,
not from the thought of hell
but, from sentiments of reverence
and filial submission to our Heavenly Father.
It is the fear which is the beginning of wisdom,
detaching us from worldly pleasures
which could, in any way,
separate us from God.
They who fear the Lord,
will prepare their hearts
and in His sight,
will sanctify their souls.
 

Prayer

Come, O blessed Spirit of Holy Fear,
penetrate my inmost heart,
that I may set Thee,
my Lord and God,
before my face forever,
help me to shun all things
which may offend Thee
and make me worthy
to appear before
the pure Eyes of Thy Divine Majesty
in Heaven, where Thou livest and reignest,
in the unity of the ever-Blessed Trinity,
God world without end.
Amen

Our Father and Hail Mary – ONCE.
Glory be to the Father – SEVEN TIMES.

Hail! all Hail! great Queen of Heaven,
Hail sweet Notre Dame de Lourdes,
‘Neath whose care our weary exile,
Is from countless ills secured.

Refrain:
Then let men and angels praise thee,
Fount of grace to all assured,
While in gladsome strains we are singing,
Hail! sweet Notre Dame de Lourdes
Hail! sweet Notre Dame de Lourdes.

Blessed thou above all others,
Mary Mistress of the spheres,
Star of hope, serenely beaming
Through this darksome vale of tears.
Refrain

Happy angels joy to own thee,
O’er their choirs exalted high,
Throned in blissful light and beauty,
Empress of the starry sky.
Refrain

As the fount is still unsealing
Its pure treasures softly fair,
May each drop be fraught with healing,
Dearest Mother, at thy prayer.
