Christmas Novena
Prayer to Obtain Favors
 
Hail and blessed be the hour
And moment in which the Son of God
Was born of the most pure Virgin Mary,
At midnight, in Bethlehem, in piercing cold.
In that hour vouchsafe, O my God!
To hear my prayer and grant my desires,
Through the merits of Our Savior Jesus Christ,
And of His Blessed Mother.  Amen
 
[To be recited fifteen times a day from the Feast
of St. Andrew (30th of Nov.) until Christmas]
