Lord, have mercy. 
Lord, have mercy.
Christ, have mercy on us. 
Christ, have mercy on us.
Lord, have mercy on us. 
Lord, have mercy on us.
Christ, hear us. 
Christ graciously hear us.

God the Father in heaven, 
have mercy on us.
God the Son, Redeemer of the world,
God the Holy Spirit
Holy Trinity, one God,

Holy Mary, Mother of God, 

pray for us.
Holy Virgin of Virgins,
Mother of the Crucified
Sorrowful Mother
Mournful Mother
Sighing Mother
Afflicted Mother
Forsaken Mother
Desolate Mother
Mother most Sad
Mother filled with anguish
Mother overwhelmed by grief
Mother transfixed by a word
Mother crucified in thy heart
Mother bereaved of thy son
Sighing dove
Mother of dolors
Fount of tears
Sea of bitterness
Field of tribulation
Mass of suffering
Mirror of patience
Rock of constancy
Remedy in perplexity
Joy of affliction
Ark of desolate
Refuge of the abandoned
Shield of the oppressed
Conqueror of the incredulous
Solace of the wretched
Medicine of the sick
Help of the faint
Strength of the weak
Protectress of those who fight
Haven of the shipwrecked
Calmer of tempests
Companion of sorrowful
Retreat those who groan
Terror of the treacherous
Standard bearer of the martyrs
Treasure of the faithful
Light of confessors
Pearl of virgins
Comport of windows
Joy of all saints
Queen of our servants
Holy Mary, who alone are unexampled

Lamb of God who take away the sins of the world, 

spare us, O Lord.

Lamb of God who take away the sins of the world,
graciously hear us, O Lord.
 

Lamb of God who take away the sins of the world,
have mercy on us.

Pray for us, most sorrowful Virgin,
That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let us pray. 


O God, in whose passion, according the prophecy of Simeon, a sword of grief pierced through the most sweet soul of your glorious Blessed Virgin Mother Mary: grant that we, who celebrate the memory of her seven sorrows, may obtain the happy effect of your passion, who lives and reigns world without end. Amen.
