A Prayer to St. Joseph
Prayer of intercession
A traditional act by which a Christian chooses St. Joseph, guardian of the Redeemer and spouse of the Virgin Mary, as patron and advocate, asking his guidance in doubt, his comfort in affliction and his protection at the hour of death. It is prayed especially on 19 March and on Wednesdays.
O blessed Joseph, faithful guardian of my Redeemer, Jesus Christ, protector of thy chaste spouse, the virgin Mother of God, I choose thee this day to be my special patron and advocate and I firmly resolve to honor thee all the days of my life. Therefore I humbly beseech thee to receive me as thy client, to instruct me in every doubt, to comfort me in every affliction, to obtain for me and for all the knowledge and love of the Heart of Jesus, and finally to defend and protect me at the hour of my death. Amen
