The Angelus

Annunciation stained glass - St Joseph's Church, Greenwich Village, NY

Verse.   The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary.
Response.   And she conceived of the Holy Spirit.

Pray one Hail Mary.

V.   Behold the handmaid of the Lord.
R.   Be it done unto me according to thy word.

Pray one Hail Mary.

V.   And the Word was made Flesh.
R.   And dwelt among us.

Pray one Hail Mary.

V.   Pray for us, O holy Mother of God.
R.   That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let us pray:

Pour forth, we beseech You, O Lord, Your grace into our hearts, that we to whom the Incarnation of Christ Your Son was made known by the message of an angel, may by His passion and cross be brought to the glory of His resurrection.   Through the same Christ Our Lord.   Amen.
