the Blessed Mary, ever Virgin,
be delivered from present sorrow
and enjoy everlasting happiness.
Through Christ Our Lord. Amen

During Advent:

Let us pray - O God, you willed
that, at the message of
an angel, your word should take
flesh in the womb of the Blessed

intercession with you.
Through the same Christ
our Lord.
Amen.

whom we have been made
worthy to receive the Author
of life, our Lord Jesus Christ
your Son, who lives and reigns
with you forever and ever.
Amen.

Let us pray - O God, who by
the Resurrection of your Son,
our Lord Jesus Christ, granted
joy to the whole world, grant,
we beg you, that through the
intercession of the Virgin Mary,
his Mother, we may attain
the joys of eternal life.
Through the same Christ
our Lord.
Amen.

 

HISTORY

This litany to the Blessed Virgin Mary was composed during the Middle Ages. The place of honor it now holds in the life of the Church is due to its faithful use at the shrine of the Holy House at Loreto.  It was definitely approved by Sixtus V in 1587, and all other Marian litanies were suppressed, at least for public use. Its titles and invocations set before us Mary's exalted privileges, her holiness of life, her amiability and power, her motherly spirit and queenly majesty. 
The principle that has been followed in their interpretation is the one enunciated by the same Pius IX: "God enriched her so wonderfully from the treasury of His divinity, far beyond all angels and saints with the abundance of all heavenly gifts, that she . . .should show forth such fullness of innocence and holiness, than which a greater under God is unthinkable and which, beside God, no one can even conceive in thought."
Hence, whatever virtue and holiness is found in angels and saints must be present in Mary in an immeasurably higher degree.
