Psalm 91
You who live in the shelter of the Most High, who abide
in the shadow of the Almighty, will say to the Lord, “My
refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.” For
he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from
the deadly pestilence; he will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness
is a shield and buckler.
You will not fear the terror of the night, or the arrow that
flies by day, or the pestilence that stalks in darkness, or
the destruction that wastes at noonday. A thousand may
fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it
will not come near you. You will only look with your eyes
and see the punishments of the wicked. Because you
have made the Lord your refuge, the Most High your
dwelling place, no evil shall befall you, no scourge
come near your tent.
For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will
bear you up, so that you will not dash your foot against
a stone. You will tread on the lion and the adder, the
young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot.
Those who love me, I will deliver; I will protect those
who know my name. When they call to me, I will answer
them; I will be with them in trouble, I will rescue them
and honor them. With long life I will satisfy them, and
show them my salvation.
Prayer to Our Mother of Perpetual Help
Dear Mother Mary,
We approach you with humble hearts, because we
have a child-like confidence in your intercession.
We beseech you to assist Daniel and family in their
desperate condition. We believe, dear Mother, that
you are not kind and generous to all your children.
We thank you dear Lady, through Christ Our Lord, Amen.
