Praying of the Rosary — The Glorious Mysteries
The Apostles Creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; he descended into hell; on the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God, the Father almighty; from there he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.
(Lord’s Prayer — Hail Mary 3x — Doxology)
I The Resurrection of the Lord
(Lord’s Prayer, Hail Mary 10x, Doxology, Fatima Prayer)
This prayer, requested by the Blessed Mother at Fatima, is said after each decade.
O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell. Lead all souls to heaven, especially those in most need of your mercy.
II The Ascension of the Lord
III The Descent of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost
IV The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary
V The Coronation of Mary, Queen of Heaven and Earth

The Salve Regina
Hail Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, our life our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve; To thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn then, most gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us and after this our exile show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!
Dialogue and Prayer
V: Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God
R: That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
LET US PRAY. O God, by the life, death and resurrection of Your Only Begotten Son, You purchased for us the rewards of eternal life; grant, we beseech You, that while meditating on these mysteries of the Holy Rosary, we may imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise, through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
Crowning of Mary and Procession of Flowers

:Song: Hail Mary: Gentle Woman Carey Landry
Refrain: Gentle woman, quiet light, morning star, so strong and bright,
Gentle Mother, peaceful dove, teach us wisdom; teach us love.
1. You were chosen by the Father; you were chosen for the Son.
You were chosen from all women and for woman, shining one.
Blessed are you among women, blest in turn all women, too.
Blessed they with peaceful spirits. Blessed they with gentle hearts.

Song: Bring Flowers of the Rarest [Mary E. Walsh, 1883]

Bring flow’rs of the fairest, Bring flow’rs of the rarest, From garden and woodland and hillside and vale; Our full hearts are swelling, our glad voices telling The praise of the loveliest Rose of the vale.
Refrain:
O Mary! we crown thee with blossoms today, Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May, O Mary! we crown thee with blossoms today, Queen of the Angels, Queen of the May.
2. Our voices ascending, in harmony blending, Oh! Thus may our hearts turn dear Mother, to thee; Oh! Thus shall we prove thee how truly we love thee, How dark without Mary life’s journey would be.

Memorare
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.

Song: Hail, Holy Queen Salve Regina Coelitum
Hail, holy Queen enthroned above, O Maria!
Hail, Queen of mercy and of love, O Maria! (refrain)
Refrain: Triumph all ye cherubim, Sing with us, ye seraphim!
Heaven and earth resound the hymn: Salve, salve, salve, Regina!
Our life, our sweetness here below, O Maria!
Our hope in sorrow and in woe, O Maria! (refrain)
And when from death to life we’ve passed, O Maria!
Show us your Son, our Lord, at last, O Maria! (refrain)
