The Secret of the Rosary


Our Father Who art In heaven, Thou Who dost fill heaven and earth With the immensity of Thy Being,
Thou Who art present everywhere Thou Who art in the saints
By Thy glory,
In the damned By Thy Justice, In the good
By Thy grace
And even in sinners By the patience
With which Thou dost tolerate them Grant we beseech Thee
That we may always remember That we come from Thee; Grant that we may live
As Thy true children ought to live Grant that we may set our course Towards Thee
And never swerve
Grant that we may use
Our every power,
Our hearts and souls and strength To tend towards Thee
And THEE ALONE


Hallowed be Thy name:


King David, the prophet, said that the name of the Lord is holy and awe-inspiring, and Isaias that
heaven is always echoing with the praises of the Seraphim who unceasingly praise
the holiness of the Lord God of Hosts.
We ask here that all the world may learn to know and adore the attributes of our God Who is so great
and so holy. We ask that He may be known, loved and adored by pagans, Turks, Jews, barbarians and by
all infidels-that all men may serve and glorify Him by a living faith, a staunch hope, a burning
charity and by renouncing all erroneous beliefs. This all adds up to say that we pray that all men
may be holy,
because our God Himself is all holy.
