O my beloved St. Joseph, adopt me as thy child.

Take charge of my salvation;

watch over me day and night;

preserve me from the occasion of sin;

obtain for me purity of body.

Through thy intercession with Jesus,

grant me a spirit of sacrifice,

humility, self-denial,

burning love for Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament,

and a sweet and tender love for Mary, my mother.

Saint Joseph, be with me living, be with me dying,

and obtain for me a favorable judgement from Jesus,

my merciful Saviour.

Amen.
