1. The Annunciation: Humility.

Hail full of grace and purity!
Meek Handmaid of the Lord,
Hail model of humility!
Chaste Mother of the Word.

2. The Visitation: Charity to our neighbors.

By that pure love which prompted thee
To seek thy cousin blest,
Pray that the fires of charity
May burn within our breast.

3. The Birth of Christ: Poverty.

This blessing beg, O Virgin Queen,
From Jesus through His birth,
By holy poverty to wean
Our hearts from things of earth.

4. Presentation in the Temple: Obedience.

Most Holy Virgin Maiden mild,
Obtain for us, we pray,
To imitate thy Holy Child,
By striving to obey.

5. The finding of Our Lord: Love Him and His service.

By thy dear Son, restored to thee,
This grace for us implore,
To serve our Lord most faithfully,
And love Him more and more.

6. Concluding Verse.

Queen of the Holy Rosary,
With tender love look down,
And bless the hearts that offer thee
This chaplet for thy crown.
