About this prayer
The Memorare is a prayer of trust in Mary’s intercession. Its title comes from the Latin word for “remember.” We approach her with our need, asking her to bring our petitions before God. It is included in the closing prayers of our Rosary companion.
Prayer text
Let us seek the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
