THE MARIAN PRAYER
OF
SAINT ILDEPHONSUS OF SPAIN (A.D. 677)
SAINT ILDEPHONSUS OF SPAIN (A.D. 677)
Virgin Mary, hear my prayer:
through the Holy Spirit
you became the Mother of Jesus;
from the Holy Spirit may I too have Jesus.
Through the Holy Spirit your flesh
conceived Jesus;
through the same Spirit may my soul receive
Jesus.
Through the Holy Spirit you were able to
know Jesus,
to possess Jesus,
and to bring him into the world.
Through the Holy Spirit may I too come to
know your Jesus.
Imbued with the Spirit,
Mary, you could say:
"I am the handmaid of the Lord,
be it done unto me according to your
word";
in the Holy Spirit,
lowly as I am,
let me proclaim the great truths about
Jesus.
In the Spirit you now adore Jesus as Lord
and look on Him as Son;
in the same spirit,
Mary, let me love your Jesus
