Wisdom from a traditional prayer
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 the piercing cold. In that hour vouchsafe, I beseech you, O my God, to hear my prayer and grant my desires, though the merits of our Savior Jesus Christ and of his blessed Mother. Amen.
