A Prayer for Peace

O God, from whom proceed all holy desires, all right counsels and just works, grant unto us Your servants that peace which the world cannot give, that our hearts may be devoted to Your service, and that, being delivered from fear, we may pass our time in peace under Your protection. Amen.

Ave Augustissima (Hail Most Venerable)

Hail, you that are most Venerable, Queen of Peace, most holy Mother of God; through the Sacred Heart of Jesus your Son, the Prince of Peace, cause His anger to cease from us, so that He may reign over us in peace. Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who sought your prayers was forsaken by God. Inspired with this confidence, I come unto you. Despise not my petitions, O Mother of the Incarnate Word; but in your loving kindness hear and answer me, O merciful, O kind, O sweet Virgin Mary.

Our Father (3 times) 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 (3 times) Hail, Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst 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.

Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us. Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us. Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us.

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.
