Made in Italy, these beautifully designed laminated prayer cards are inspiring and sturdy. They can be purchased as singles or in packs of 25 for a bulk discount.
The front of the card depicts a serene illustration of the Blessed Virgin Mary, surrounded by a host of cherubs. On the back is a prayer/poem written by Mary Dixon Thayer and popularized by Archbiship Fulton Sheen - To Our Lady (Lovely Lady Dressed In Blue):
Lovely Lady dressed in blue,
Teach me how to pray!
God was just your little Boy,
Tell me what to say!
Did you lift Him up, sometimes,
Gently, on your knee?
Did you sing to Him the way
Mother does to me?
Did you hold His hand at night?
Did you ever try
telling stories of the world?
Oh! And did He cry?
Do you really think He cares
If I tell Him things...
Little things that happen?
And do the Angels’ wings
make a noise?
And can He hear me, if I speak low?
Does He understand me now?
Tell me... for you know!
Lovely Lady dressed in blue
Teach me how to pray!
God was just your little Boy,
And you know the way!
