Saint Michael the Archangel,
Defend us in battle
Be our protection against the wickedness and snares
Of the devil.
May God rebuke him,
We humbly pray; and do thou ,
O Prince of the heavenly host,
By the power of God,
Thrust into hell
Satan and all evil spirits who
Wander through the world
For the ruin of souls.
Amen
O Christ Jesus,
when all is darkness
and we feel our weakness and helplessness,
give us the sense of Your presence,
Your love, and Your strength.
Help us to have perfect trust
in Your protecting love
and strengthening power,
so that nothing may frighten or worry us,
for, living close to You,
we shall see Your hand,
Your purpose, Your will through all things.
Amen
