Day Nine
With the rising of the sun, you will soon see the King of kings and Lord of lords, coming forth from His Father, as the bridegroom, from His bridal chamber.
Collect: Come quickly, we pray, Lord Jesus, and do not delay, that those who trust in your compassion may find solace and relief in your coming. Who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Litany to Jesus in the Womb of Mary
Jesus, Lamb of God in the womb of Mary Spare us, O Lord.
Jesus, Holy Innocent in the womb of Mary Graciously hear us, O Lord.
Jesus, Son of God and Messiah in the womb of Mary, Have mercy on us, O Lord.
Let us pray:
O Jesus, Eternal Word of the Father,
Born of the Virgin Mary,
Out of love for us you chose the poverty of human nature,
death on the cross, and the hiddenness of bread.
Give us your sanctifying Spirit.
Make us meek and humble of heart.
Set us like a seal on your heart and on your arm,
so that your jealous love may shield us and keep us from evil. Amen.
+W. Giaquinta
