Said after the Hail Holy Queen to conclude the Rosary.

The Rosary Closing Prayer is said after the Hail Holy Queen to formally conclude the praying of the Rosary. It asks God to grant us the grace to imitate the mysteries we have meditated and to obtain their promised fruits.

The Prayer

O God, whose only-begotten Son,
by His life, death and resurrection,
has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life;
grant, we beseech Thee,
that, meditating on these mysteries
of the most holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary,
we may imitate what they contain,
and obtain what they promise.
Through the same Christ our Lord.
Amen.

About This Prayer

The Rosary Closing Prayer is a collect (a formal prayer of petition) asking that the grace of the Rosary’s mysteries might bear fruit in the life of the one who prays. The Rosary itself — with its 20 mysteries spanning the Annunciation to the Coronation of Mary — is considered the most complete summary of the Christian life.
