Prayer to Our Lady of Sorrows
The Prayer
O Most Sorrowful Mother Mary, who stood by your Son as He suffered on the Cross, I come before you with a heavy heart. You know pain and sorrow as no other human does, and you offer your motherly comfort to all who are burdened.
I bring you my sufferings, my fears, and my wounds. Wrap me in your mantle of compassion and lead me ever closer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Help me to carry my own cross with faith, hope, and love, and to unite my sufferings with His.
Our Lady of Sorrows, be with me in times of grief, in trials, and in moments of despair. Pray for me, that I may grow stronger through suffering and become more deeply united to Christ.
Amen.
