0 Mother of Perpetual Help, 
grant that I may ever invoke thy most powerful name, 
which is the safeguard of the living 
and the salvation of the dying. 
0 purest Mary, 0 sweetest Mary, 
let thy name henceforth be ever on my lips. 
Delay not, 0 Blessed Lady, 
to help me, whenever I call on thee; 
for, in all my temptations, 
in all my needs, I shall never cease to call on thee, 
ever repeating thy sacred name, Mary, Mary.

0 what consolation, what sweetness, 
what confidence, what emotion, 
fill my soul when I utter thy sacred name, 
or even only think of thee. 
I thank the Lord for having given thee, 
for my good so sweet, so powerful, so lovely a name. 
But I will not be content with merely uttering thy name. 
Let my love for thee prompt me ever to hail thee, 
Mother of Perpetual Help.

Say 3 Hail Mary...
