Prayer For The Feast Of The Presentation Of The Lord #2

All-powerful Father,
Christ your Son became man for us
and was presented in the temple.
May he free our hearts from sin
and bring us into your presence.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you
and the Holy Spirit, one God,
for ever and ever.

Amen.

Prayer For The Feast Of The Presentation Of The Lord

(By Abbot Gueranger.)
O Blessed Mother,
the sword is already in your heart.
You foreknow the future of the Fruit of your womb.
May our fidelity in following Him
through the coming mysteries of His public life
bring some alleviations to the sorrows of your maternal heart.
