Prayers to the Most Holy Mother of God

O Most Holy Theotokos, Mother of God! Through your intercessory prayers we beseech the All‑good Lord that by His power and grace He may raise us from the depths of sin and deliver us from violent death and from all evil. Grant us, O Theotokos, peace and health, enlighten our mind and the eyes of our heart to salvation, and make us, sinful servants of God and your children, worthy of the Kingdom of your Son, Christ our God, for His rule is blessed together with the Father and His Most Holy Spirit. Amen.

Through your blessed intercession, O Blessed Theotokos, may the doors of God's mercy be opened, that we, firmly trusting and relying on God, may not perish but be delivered from all evil by the Lord's compassion. For in the Holy Trinity you are the salvation of the Christian race.

Intercessor of the Christians, diligent one, prayerful one before the Creator, do not reject the prayers of sinners, but come quickly, O Merciful One, to help us, for with faith we invoke the Lord through you: hasten to our prayers and swiftly answer our supplications, for you always intercede before the Lord for those who truly worship and honor God and venerate you, O Theotokos.

Under your heavenly mercy of the Creator we fall, O Virgin Theotokos. Do not reject our prayers in times of distress, but with God's omnipotence deliver us from poverty, O One, Pure and Blessed. Most Holy Theotokos, by your intercession before Christ the Lord may we be healed and saved. All the saints, pray to God for us.

O Most Holy Theotokos, Mother of God! You are higher than all angels and archangels and more chaste than all creation. By God's omnipotence and grace you are the helper of the afflicted, the disheartened—hope of the Lord; the poor—intercessor before your Divine Son; the sorrowful—comfort; the hungry—nourisher; the naked—clothing; the infirm—Lord's healing; the sinners—Christ's salvation; all Christians—heavenly aid and protection.

O most merciful Theotokos, Virgin Mother of God, according to the Lord's providence and by your mercy save and have compassion on all true Christians, and with your pure zeal protect them. Grant, O immaculate Theotokos, that Christ our God may strengthen us with His power from heaven against our unseen and visible enemies. O most merciful Theotokos! By Christ's righteousness lift us from the abyss of sin and deliver us from hunger, sea, earthquake and flood, fire and sword, from hostile attack and civil war, from violent death, from the destructive wind, from deadly pestilence and from all evil. Grant, O immaculate Theotokos, peace and health to God's servants and your children (names) and to all faithful Christians, enlighten them for salvation the mind and the eyes of the heart, and make us, sinful servants of God and your children, of the Kingdom of your Son, Christ our God. For His rule is blessed and glorified together with His Eternal Father and His Most Holy, Good and Life‑giving Spirit, now, ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.

Prayer in honor of the miraculous “Vishhorod” (“Volodymyr”) icon: To whom shall we turn, O Theotokos? To whom shall we appeal in our distress, if not to Christ our God through your heavenly intercession, Queen of Heaven? Who will receive our tears and sighs, if not you, Immaculate One, Hope of Christians and our Advocate, sinners? Who can surpass you in the Lord's mercy? Hear us, O Theotokos, Mother of our God, and do not reject those who need your heavenly aid: hear our groaning, support us sinners, teach us, O Queen of Heaven, and do not turn away from us, God's servants and your children, O Theotokos, for our sins, but be to us Mother and Intercessor, and bring us under the merciful protection of your Son. Arrange our destiny as the Lord wills, and lead us, sinners, to a quiet and peaceful life, that, lamenting our sins, we may rejoice with you always, now, ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.

Virgin Mother of God, rejoice, full‑of‑grace Mary, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, for thou hast borne the Savior of our souls. This Archangel greeting should be repeated as often as possible. It brings a gracious peace to the soul, protecting both us and our neighbors.
