Seat of Wisdom, Virgin Mary, we love you,
And we rejoice that you’re our mother;
You cuddle us in your amiable arms as
Your cherished little babes in the Spirit.
Speaking through the dear apostle John,
Jesus commanded us all to revere you;
Your humble happy obedience to God’s plan
Inspires us to imitate your praiseworthy virtue.
Give us to eat of the fresh fruit of holy faith,
Which solidly strengthens our confidence;
Give us to drink of His luscious living water,
Which surges through and sweetens our soul.
Pray that we be purified from affection for
Even the smallest and slightest venial sins;
Shed upon us the radiant rays of your prudence,
Enlighten us when we read the Word’s words.
