Prayer for a Wayward Child

Again I turn to St. Anne, many prayers asking her to intercede for us I use often. This one was requested I add, it touches a lot of mothers hearts today.

O Holy Mother, St. Anne, so rich in graces!
Thou wilt never leave unheard the pleadings
and tears of a mother who invokes thee for a
wayward child. Thou knowest my grief and the
anguish of my heart. Look down with thy maternal
eyes upon this poor erring child, and bring
him (her) back upon the way of salvation, that
he (she) may again serve God faithfully
and thus obtain eternal happiness.
Through Christ our Lord. Amen

Hail Mary (three times)
