Oh, St. Joseph,
whose protection is so great,
so strong, so prompt before the throne of God.
I place in you all my interests 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 of contemplating you,
and Jesus asleep in your arms;
I dare not approach
while He reposes near your heart.
Press Him 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
