<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#1562ff;"><b>The Prayer Of Mary </b></span></span></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;">
<p><span style="font-size:small;">My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,<br />
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior<br />
for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant.<br />
From this day all generations will call me blessed:<br />
the Almighty has done great things for me,<br />
and holy is his Name.</span></p>
<p>He has mercy on those who fear him<br />
in every generation.<br />
He has shown the strength of his arm,<br />
he has scattered the proud in their conceit.<br />
<a name="more"></a></p>
<p>He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,<br />
and has lifted up the lowly.<br />
He has filled the hungry with good things,<br />
and the rich he has sent away empty.</p>
<p>He has come to the help of his servant Israel<br />
for he remembered his promise of mercy,<br />
the promise he made to our fathers,<br />
to Abraham and his children forever.</p>
<p>(Lk 1:46-55)</p>

</span></span><span style="font-size:small;"><i>At that time there was a violent earthquake</i> (Revelation 11:15). </span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:red;">Thanksgiving for salvation and victory</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:red;"> </span> </span></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:red;">I</span></span></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">I love you, Lord, my strength,<br />
my rock, my fortress, my savior.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;"><br />
My God is the rock where I take refuge;<br />
my shield, my mighty help, my stronghold.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">The Lord is worthy of all praise;<br />
when I call I am saved from my foes.<br />
The waves of death rose about me;<br />
the torrents of destruction assailed me;<br />
the snares of the grave entangled me;<br />
the traps of death confronted me.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">In my anguish I called to the Lord;<br />
I cried to my God for help.<br />
From his temple he heard my voice;<br />
my cry came to his ears”.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:</span><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:red;">—</span> as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.</span></div>

<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">Then the earth reeled and rocked;<br />
the mountains were shaken to their base:<br />
they reeled at his terrible anger.<br />
Smoke came forth from his nostrils<br />
and scorching fire from his mouth:<br />
coals were set ablaze by its heat.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">He lowered the heavens and came down,<br />
a black cloud under his feet.<br />
He came enthroned on the cherubim,<br />
he flew on the wings of the wind.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">He made the darkness his covering,<br />
the dark waters of the clouds, his tent.<br />
A brightness shone out before him<br />
with hailstones and flashes of fire.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">The Lord thundered in the heavens;<br />
the Most High let his voice be heard.<br />
He shot his arrows, scattered the foe,<br />
flashed his lightnings and put them to flight.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">The bed of the ocean was revealed;<br />
the foundations of the world were laid bare<br />
at the thunder of your threat, O Lord,<br />
at the blast of the breath of your anger.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">From on high he reached down and seized me;<br />
he drew me forth from the mighty waters.<br />
He snatched me from my powerful foe,<br />
from my enemies whose strength I could not match.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">They assailed me in the day of my misfortune,<br />
but the Lord was my support.<br />
He brought me forth into freedom,<br />
he saved me because he loved me.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:</span><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:red;">—</span> as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.</span></div>

<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:red;">Ant. 3 </span> Lord, kindle a light for my guidance and scatter my darkness.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"></div>

<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:red;">III</span></span></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">He rewarded me because I was just,<br />
repaid me, for my hands were clean,<br />
for I have kept the way of the Lord<br />
and have not fallen away from my God.</span></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">For his judgments are all before me:</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;"><br />
I have never neglected his commands.<br />
I have always been upright before him;<br />
I have kept myself from guilt.</span></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">He repaid me because I was just<br />
and my hands were clean in his eyes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;"><br />
You are loving with those who love you:<br />
you show yourself perfect with the perfect.</span></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">With the sincere you show yourself sincere,<br />
but the cunning you outdo in cunning.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;"><br />
For you save a humble people<br />
but humble the eyes that are proud.</span></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">You, O Lord, are my lamp,<br />
my God who lightens my darkness.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;"><br />
With you I can break through any barrier,<br />
with my God I can scale any wall.</span></div>
<div style="text-align:center;"></div>
<p> ;</p>
<div style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-size:small;">Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:</span><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:red;">—</span> as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.</span></div>
