Prayer to Saint Joseph

O glorious Saint Joseph,
faithful follower of Jesus Christ,
to you we raise our hearts and hands
to implore your powerful intercession
in obtaining from the divine Heart of Jesus
all the graces necessary for our spiritual and temporal welfare.

O guardian of the Word Incarnate,
we feel animated with confidence
that your prayers on our behalf
will be graciously heard before the throne of God.

O glorious Saint Joseph,
through the love you bore to Jesus Christ,
and for the glory of His name,
hear our prayers and obtain our petitions. Amen.
