Prayers
Happy and Blessed are you O Joseph,
to whom it has been given,
not only to see and hear but also to bear in your arms,
to embrace, to clothe, and to watch over God himself,
whom many Kings have desired to see but have not seen,
and to hear but have not heard.
Pray for us, O Blessed Joseph.
Amen.
O glorious St. Joseph, husband of the Most Holy Virgin Mary,
model of all workers, pray for us.
St. Joseph, Patron of the Church, pray for us.
St. Joseph, Patron of the Dying, pray for us.

Amen
