The Regina Coeli
[To be said standing, during the Paschal season]
O QUEEN of heaven, rejoice! Alleluia.
For He whom thou did merit to bear, Alleluia,
Has arisen, as He said, Alleluia.
Pray for us to God. Alleluia.
V. Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary. Alleluia.
R. For the Lord has risen indeed. Alleluia.
Let us pray.
O God, Who through the Resurrection of Thy Son our Lord Jesus Christ, did vouchsafe to fill the world with joy; grant, we beseech Thee, that, through His Virgin Mother, Mary, we may lay hold on the joys of everlasting life. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
