Prayer to the Blessed Virgin
Patroness of
the United States

O Mary Immaculate! Guard with loving care this country dedicated to thee. Let thy purity keep it pure. Watch over its institutions. As thou art the Refuge of all
sinners, this country is the refuge of the
exiled and the oppressed. Guide it ever in
the ways of peace. Let not its prosperity be
its ruin. Alas! many of its children, who
know not what they do, are walking in uncertain paths which are dark, and lead them away from truth. Mother of all, pray
for us and plead for them, that we, thy
children, may love and adore thy adorable Son
with fervent faith, and that those who are
wandering in error's path may, through thy
intercession, return to the one Fold of the
True Shepherd--to thy Son, our Saviour, Jesus
Christ. Amen
