The cross of the angels On the bed where I lie; The robe of the kingdom, May it come very nigh; O Glorious Virgin, My thousand loves thou, My helpful supporter, My affection thou. My woman-physician, Ill or well, thou, My firm faithful helper In the Kingdom of graces, thou. O gentle Jesus, O Jesus, most gentle, O Jesus Christ, have mercy upon us; O glorious Virgin, pray thou also for us; O Mother of God, O Bright Star of Knowledge, O Queen of Paradise, watch thou and ward us, The light of glory obtain from thy Child for us, A sight of thy house, by thy great power's might, for us The Light of all lights, and a sight of the Trinity, And the grace of long patience in days of adversity. |
