The Light of God before me.
The Light of God behind me.
The Light of God above me.
The Light of God beside me.
The Light of God with me. �
From the Prayer of St. Patrick
Lord, make me an instrument
of Your peace.
Where there is hatred,
let me show love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light; and
Where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that
I may not so much seek
to be consoled, as to console;
To be understood,
as to understand;
To be loved, as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive---
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
And it is in dying that we are
born to eternal life.
From the Prayer of St. Francis
St. Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our safeguard against
the wickedness and snares
of the devil. May God rebuke him,
we humbly pray and
do thou, oh Prince of the Heavenly Hosts,
by the Power of
God, cast down into hell satan,
and all his evil spirits who
wander now throughout the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
Prayer to St. Michael
