O most beautiful flower of Mount Carmel, Fruitful vine, Splendor of Heaven,
Blessed Mother of the Son of God, Immaculate Virgin, assist me in this my necessity.
O Star of the Sea, help me and show me herein you are my mother.
O Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and earth,
I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in this necessity.
There are none that can withstand your power.  O, show me herein you are my mother.
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.
Sweet Mother, I place this cause in your hands. (Mention your intentions here.)
Our Lady of Mount Carmel, Pray for us.

The only way we can stay faithful in this chaotic and barbaric time is by clinging to our Lord and Lady.  Always rely on her for all  your needs.  Saint Alphonsus, apparently quoting Aquinas, says that strong devotion to our Lady till death is a near proof of salvation, while absence of that devotion is proof of not being one of the elect.  Our sinless mother loves to help us!  She will never abandon you!
