Joseph

Prayer to St Joseph
Remember, O most chaste spouse of the virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who implored your help and sought your intercession was left unaided. Full of confidence in your power, I fly unto you, and beg your protection. Despise not, O foster father of the redeemer, my humble petition, but in your goodness, hear and answer me. Amen
