NOVENA In Preparation for the Feast of the Purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary
The Candlemas Novena – DAY NINE
DAY NINE
Virgin most resigned,
who didst feel thy soul
transfixed with sorrow
when in spirit, thou didst foresee
all the bitter passion of thy Son
and, knowing the grief of St Joseph,
thy Spouse, for all thy sufferings,
didst, with holy words console him.
Pierce our souls,
through and through,
with true sorrow for our sins
that we may one day,
possess the consolation
of being made partakers
of thy glory in Heaven.
Amen
Hail Mary …..

R. That he should not see death
until he had seen the Christ of the Lord.
Let us Pray
Almighty, everlasting God,
we pray Thy majesty
that as Thine Only-begotten Son
was presented in the Temple
in the substance of our flesh,
so Thou wouldst enable us
to present ourselves before Thee,
with clean hearts.
Amen
