List of Prayers
to the Saints
Close friend of God who is all pure, you chose before the privileges
of life the privilege of virginal purity.
Even your promise of purity in the married state was guarded by an angel
of the Lord. May I share in the joys of
your heart as you professed your love for God before the stone idols of
paganism.
Intercede for me that I may share the joys of my faith with
those who do not yet know you, and those who still hear only the voices of the
world.
(Mention
your request)
O glorious saint, who chose to die instead of denying your King, we pray you please to help us as His fair praise we sing!
(Mention your request)
We lift our hearts in joyous song to honor Him this way, and while we sing, remembering, to sing is to doubly pray.
At once in our hearts and in our tongues we offer double prayer sent heavenward on winged notes to praise God dwelling there.
While in our hearts and tongues we try with song to praise God twice, we ask dear saint, to help us be united close to Christ!
