    NOVENA PRAYER DAY8
    Holy Mother of God,          
    hear the prayers of the Church for all mothers,         
    especially those wearied by life  
        and overcome by the suffering they bear for their  children.         
    Recite the following prayer...      Hail Mary... 
    O Mother of the Word Incarnate,  
        intercede for them   from your place in heaven, 
        that the mercy of your divine Son  
        might lighten their burden and give them strength. 
    Recite the following prayers...  
    Hail Mary... 
    Glory to the Father... 
      
    (day.8.) 
    
     Our Lady of Sorrows,  
Each time I pray, 
I am called to join my prayer  
with Christ's perfect prayer upon  the cross.  
It is easy from the vantage of the cross  
to see the world clearly, 
tTo see how easy it is to join the suffering of the innocent  
to the suffering of him who is without sin.  
We should work for an end  
to all the forms of violence which threaten life.  
That is a wonderful good.  
But it is even more important  
to stand with the Virgin Mother  
and to beg her Son to come to our aid.
    
     Amen
