Devotion to the guardian angel: watch over me ...

PRAYERS TO THE GUARDIAN ANGELS

Holy angel stay close to me, give me your hand that I am little. If you guide me with your smile, we will go to heaven together

My little angel, sent by the good Jesus, watch over you all night. My little angel, sent by the good Jesus, protect me all day long.

PRAYER TO THE GUARDIAN ANGEL

(of San Pio of Pietralcina)

O holy guardian angel, take care of my soul and my body. Light up my mind so that I know the Lord better and love him with all my heart. Assist me in my prayers so that I do not give in to distractions but pay the greatest attention to them. Help me with your advice, to see the good and do it generously. Defend me from the pitfalls of the infernal enemy and support me in temptations so that it always wins. Make up for my coldness in the worship of the Lord: do not cease to wait for my custody until he has brought me to Heaven, where we will praise the Good God together for all eternity.

PRAYER TO THE GUARDIAN ANGEL

(of Saint Francis de Sales)

S. Angelo, You protect me from birth. I entrust my heart to you: give it to my Savior Jesus, since it belongs to him alone. You are also my comforter in death! Strengthen my faith and my hope, light up my heart of divine love! Let my past life not afflict me, that my present life will not disturb me, that my future life will not frighten me. Strengthen my soul in the anguish of death; teach me to be patient, keep me in peace! Get me the grace to taste the Bread of Angels as the last food! Let my last words be: Jesus, Mary and Joseph; that my last breath is a breath of love and that your presence is my last comfort
