Prayer to Saint Cecilia
Prayer of intercession
A prayer to the Roman martyr St. Cecilia, patroness of musicians and of sacred music, asking her intercession for those who make music for the Church. Her feast is kept on 22 November.
Dear Saint Cecilia, one thing we know for certain about you is that you became a heroic martyr in fidelity to your divine Bridegroom. We do not know that you were a musician but we are told that you heard Angels sing. Inspire musicians to gladden the hearts of people by filling the air with God's gift of music and reminding them of the divine Musician who created all beauty. Amen.
