A beautiful prayer to St. Joseph asking that he keep Jesus near and to assist us in granting us blessings from the Lord. An image of St. Joseph hugging the Infant Child on one side of the card and the prayer on the other.
PRAYER TO ST. JOSEPH
Over 1900 years old
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
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 us. Amen.
