We pray for Saint Lucy's intercession in our lives for the preservation of the light of our eyes. She's the patron saint of the blind and visually impaired.
Prayer to Saint Lucy
Saint Lucy,
whose beautiful name signifies light,
by the light of faith which
God bestowed upon you
increase and preserve His
light in my soul
so that I may avoid evil and
be zealous in the performance
of good works,
and detest nothing so much as
the blindness and the darkness
of evil and sin.
Obtain for me, by your
intercession with God
perfect vision for my bodily eyes
and the grace to use them for God's
greater honor and glory
and the salvation of souls.
St. Lucy, virgin and martyr
hear my prayers and obtain my petitions.
Amen.
Prayer in Honor of Saint Lucy
O God, our Creator and Redeemer,
mercifully hear our prayers that as
we venerate Your servant, St. Lucy, for
the light of faith You did bestow upon
her, You would vouchsafe to increase and
to preserve this same light in our souls,
that we may be able to avoid evil, to dog
ood and to abhor nothing so much as the
blindness and the darkness of evil and of
sin. Relying on Your goodness, O God,
we humbly ask You, by the intercession
of Your servant, St. Lucy that You would
give perfect vision to our eyes, that they
may serve for Your greater honor and
glory, and the salvation of our should in the
world, that we may come to the enjoyment
of the unfailing light of the Lamb of God
in paradise. St. Lucy, virgin and martyr,
hear our prayers and obtain our petitions.
