look graciously upon the beloved inheritance which Jesus Christ purchased by His
blood and to aid us in our necessities with your power and strength. Defend, O most
watchful guardian of the Holy Family, the chosen children of Jesus Christ. Keep from
us, O most loving Father, all blight of error and corruption. Aid us from on high, most
valiant defender, in this conflict with the powers of darkness. And just as you once
saved the Child Jesus from mortal danger, so now defend God's Holy Church from
the snares of the enemy and from all adversity. Shield us by your constant
protection, so that, supported by your example and strengthened by your help, we
may be able to live a virtuous life, die a happy death, and obtain everlasting bliss in
heaven. Amen.
