THE AGNITA Prayer to OUR LADY, QUEEN OF PEACE Most Holy Virgin, Mother of God and our most loving mother, on account of thy dignity as Mother of God thou dost share in the prerogatives of thy Divine Son, in His all-embracing kingship. We are thy humble servants, thy faithful children. We feel consoled when we consider how the Savior of mankind had Himself announced by the prophets and by the angels at Bethlehem under the beautiful title of King of Peace, and it must also be most pleasing and welcome to thee if we invoke and honor thee as the Queen of Peace. This title is so fitting to thy maternal heart. By thy powerful intercession keep discord and hatred aloof from the nations, guide all hearts on the way of brotherly love and peace! Jesus taught love and peace to mankind and urged it upon them for their universal well-being. On this way Holy Church seeks to guide us unceasingly. Most glorious Queen, look down with favor upon the paternal efforts of our Holy Father, the Vicar of thy Divine Son on earth, and grant to them a happy issue! He is untiring in his endeavors to bring mankind to the one center where salvation is possible—the Faith—and to keep them in the unity of Faith. Help us, that we, too, may with childlike docility submit to the common Father and yield to his well-meant designs. Grant also that harmony may reign in our families, peace in our hearts, and Christian love in the whole world. Amen. 9
