Novena to our Lady of Lourdes ~ Day 4

Be blessed, O most pure Virgin,
for having vouchsafed to manifest thy shining with life, sweetness and beauty, in the Grotto of Lourdes,
saying to the child, St. Bernadette:
"I am the Immaculate Conception."
A thousand times we congratulate thee upon thy Immaculate Conception.
And now, O ever Immaculate Virgin, Mother of mercy,
Health of the sick, Refuge of sinners, Comforter of the afflicted,
thou know our wants, our troubles, our sufferings;
deign to cast upon us a look of mercy.
By appearing in the Grotto of Lourdes, thou were pleased
to make it a privileged sanctuary, whence you dispense thy favours,
and already many have obtained the cure of their infirmities,
both spiritual and physical.
We come, therefore, with the most unbounded confidence
Obtain for us, O loving Mother, the granting of our request..

Through gratitude for thy favours, we will endeavor to imitate thy virtues,
that we may on day share thy glory.
Our Lady of Lourdes, Mother of Christ,
thou had influence with thy Divine Son while upon earth.
Thou have the same influence now in Heaven.
Pray for us; obtain for us from thy Divine Son
our special requests if it be the Divine Will. Amen.

Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for us.Saint Bernadette, pray for us.

Day 4
O Immaculate Queen of Heaven,
we thy wayward, erring children,
join our unworthy prayers of praise
and thanksgiving to those of the Angels and Saints
and thy own the One, Holy, and Undivided Trinity
may be glorified in Heaven and on earth.
Our Lady of Lourdes,
as thou looked down with love and mercy upon Bernadette
as she prayed her Rosary in the Grotto,
look down now, we beseech thee,
with love and mercy upon us.
From the abundance of graces granted thee by thy Divine Son,
sweet Mother of God, give to each of us
all that thy motherly Immaculate Heart sees we need
and at this moment look with special prayer petition
on the grace we seek in this novena..


O Brilliant star of purity, Mary Immaculate,
Our Lady of Lourdes,
glorious Assumption, triumphant in thy Coronation,
show unto us the mercy of the Mother of God,
Virgin Mary, Queen and Mother,
be our comfort, hope, strength, and consolation. Amen.


Our Lady of Lourdes,pray for us.Saint Bernadette, pray for us.Amen
