The Angelus derives its name from the first word of the Latin version of the prayer Angelus Domini nuntiavit Maria, "The angel of the Lord declared unto Mary." Each response is followed by reciting the Hail Mary. Traditionally the Angelus is prayed three times a day, at 6:00 a.m., noon, and 6 p.m., to honor the incarnation of Jesus.
- The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary.
- And she conceived by the Holy Spirit.
Hail Mary...
- Behold the handmaid of the Lord.
- May it be done unto me according to your word.
Hail Mary...
- And the Word became flesh.
- And dwelt among us.
Hail Mary...
- Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God.
- That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Let us pray:
Pour forth, we beseech you, O Lord, your grace into our hearts, that we, to whom the incarnation of Christ, your Son, was made known by the message of the angel, may by his passion and cross be brought to the glory of his resurrection. Through the same Christ, our Lord.
Amen.
