Take My Hand O Blessed Mother

“Take My Hand, O Blessed Mother“ is a prayer that reflects the belief in Our Lady’s maternal care and her willingness to assist her children who call upon her. It is a plea for guidance, protection, and strength throughout life’s journey, recognizing Our Lady as our compassionate and loving mother.

This gentle prayer asks Mary for guidance and comfort through life’s trials. It expresses childlike trust in her love and protection. Many Catholics find strength in her maternal intercession, especially in times of difficulty.

Take my hand, O Blessed Mother. Hold me firmly lest I fall. If I’m nervous while I’m walking, Quickly heed my humble call. Guide me over every crossing, Watch me when I’m on the stairs. Let me know that You’re beside me, Listen to my fervent prayers. Bring me to my destination. Keep me safe along the way. Bless my every undertaking, And my duties for the day. When the evening draws upon me, I do not fear to be alone. Once again, O Blessed Mother, Take my hand and lead me home.

Amen.
