Particularly appropriate during Eastertide:
Queen of heaven, be joyful, alleluia; Because he whom so meetly thou barest, alleluia, Hath arisen, as he promised, alleluia: Pray for us to the Father, alleluia.
V: Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, alleluia.
R: For the Lord is risen indeed, alleulia.
Let us pray.
O God, who, by the resurrection of thy Son Jesus Christ, didst vouchsafe to give gladness unto the world: grant, we beseech thee, that we, being holpen by the Virgin Mary, his Mother, may attain unto the joys of everlasting life. + Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
Apparently St. Gregory the Great heard angels chanting the first bit, and then added himself "Ora pro nobis Deum, alleluia." A fitting prayer.
