Prayer
Prayer
O holy Patriarch, I rejoice with thee at thy exalted
dignity, by which thou wert deemed worthy to act as father to Jesus, to give
Him orders, and to be obeyed by Him, whom heaven and earth obey. O great Saint,
as thou wert served by a God, I too wish to be taken into thy service. I choose
thee after Mary, to be my chief advocate and protector. I promise to honor thee
every day by some special act of devotion, and by placing myself daily under
thy protection. By that sweet company, which Jesus and Mary gave thee in thy
lifetime, protect me all the days of my life, so that I may never separate from
my God by losing His grace. My dear St. Joseph pray to Jesus for me. Certainly
He can never refuse thee any thing as He obeyed all thy orders on earth.
Our Father
Our Father, Who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of death. Amen.
Novena Prayer
O Glorious St. Joseph, faithful follower of Jesus Christ, to you do we raise our hearts and hands to implore your powerful intercession, obtaining from the benign Heart of Jesus all the helps and graces necessary for our spiritual and temporal welfare; particularly the grace of a happy death, and the special favour we now implore...
[Here mention your request]
O guardian of the Word Incarnate, we feel animated with confidence that your prayers in our behalf will be graciously heard before the throne of God.
