Prayers of the Rosary
The Sign of the Cross
In the
name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
The Apostles' Creed
I believe in God, the Father
Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ. His only Son,
Our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the
Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was
buried. He descended to the dead. On the third day He rose again. He ascended
into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again
to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy
Catholic Church, the Communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the
resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
Our Father
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in
heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we
forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but
deliver us from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for
us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Glory Be to the Father
Glory be to the Father, and to
the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever
shall be, world without end. Amen.
Hail Holy Queen
Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of
Mercy, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished
children of Eve. To thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this
valley of tears. Turn then, most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy towards
us. And after this, our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb,
Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!
Pray for us, O Holy Mother of
God. That
we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
