Devotion
to Saint Joseph
To you, O blessed
Joseph, do we come in our tribulation, and having implored the help of your
most holy spouse, we confidently invoke your patronage also.
Through that charity
which bound you to the Immaculate Virgin Mother of God and through the paternal
love with which you embraced the Child Jesus, we humbly beg you graciously to
regard the inheritance which Jesus Christ has purchased by his Blood, and
with your power and strength to aid us in our necessities.
O most watchful Guardian of the Holy Family, defend the chosen children of
Jesus Christ; O most loving father, ward off from us every contagion of
error and corrupting influence; O our most mighty protector, be propitious
to us and from heaven assist us in our struggle with the power of darkness;
and, as once you rescued the Child Jesus from deadly peril, so now protect
God’s Holy Church from the snares of the enemy and from all adversity; shield,
too, each one of us by your constant protection, so that, supported by your
example and your aid, we may be able to live piously, to die holily, and to
obtain eternal happiness in heaven. Amen.
