    I've found myself repeatedly saying this prayer these past few weeks:

    Mary,
    Mother of grace,
    Mother of mercy,
    Shield me from the enemy
    and receive me at the hour of me death.
    Amen,

    Here it is in the original Latin:

    Maria mater gratiae,
    Mater misericordiae,
    Tu nos ab hoste protege,
    et mortis hora suscipe.

    I originally came across it Spanish, some Spanish speakers say it in between decades of the Rosary; I figure I'll add the Spanish version here as well:

    María, Madre de gracia,
    Madre de misericordia,
    defíéndenos de nuestros enemigos
    y ampáranos ahora y en la hora de nuestra muerte.
    Amén.

    I just thought I'd share this because, like I said, I've found myself saying this prayer repeatedly throughout the day; I think it is a grace. :love:
