Prayer That Never Fails to St. Joseph

Prayer That Never Fails

“Oh, St. Joseph, whose protection
is so great, so strong, so prompt before the throne of God,
I place in you all my interest and desires.

Oh, St. Joseph, do assist me by your powerful intercession,
and obtain for me from your divine Son
all spiritual blessings, through Jesus Christ, our Lord.

So that, having engaged here below your heavenly power,
I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of Fathers.

Oh, St. Joseph, I never weary contemplating you, and Jesus asleep in your arms;
I dare not approach while He reposes near your heart.

Press Him close in my name and kiss His fine head for me and
ask Him to return the kiss when I draw my dying breath.

St. Joseph, patron of departing souls, pray for me.

Amen.”
