On the first bead, pray the “Our Father”.

• “Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us: and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.”

On the next three beads, pray the “Hail Mary”, and add one “Glory Be” at the end.

•  ” Hail, Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with Thee; blessed art Thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of Thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.”
• “Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen”

Begin each decade by announcing the mystery, then on the large beads pray the “Our Father” and on the 10 small beads, the “Hail Mary”. At the end of each decade add the “Glory Be” and the “O My Jesus”.

•  “O My Jesus, Forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, lead all souls to heaven, especially those in most need of Thy mercy.”

After the final decade, finish with the “Hail, Holy Queen”.

•  “Hail, Holy Queen, mother of mercy, our life, our sweetness, and our hope. To Thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve. To Thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn then, most gracious advocate, Thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile show unto us the blessed fruit of Thy womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.”

Amen.”
• “In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”
