An Angel Prayer

May the angels keep you 'til morning. May they guide you through the night.
May they comfort all your sorrows.
May they help you win the fight.

May they keep watch on your soul.
May they show you better ways.
May they guard you while you're sleeping.
May they see you through your days.

May they show you new hopes.
May they still your every doubt.
May they calm your every fear.
May they hear you when you shout.

May the angels keep you 'til morning.
More than this I cannot pray.
And if the angels ever fail you.
Then may God be there that day.

I am feeling a little lonely tonight
Dear Angel.....please do not take flight.
Stay with me and help me with my fears
Guide me, protect me, show me you are here.
I'm just feeling a little blue
Please remind me and show me what to do
So I may look forward to tomorrow
Without this heaviness and sorrow.
So goodnight for now Angel dear
Hold me and let me know there is nothing to fear.

Angel Guardian Prayer of St. Gertrude

O most holy angel of God, appointed by God to be my guardian, I give thee thanks for all the benefits which thou has ever bestowed on me in body and soul. I praise and glorify thee that thou has condescended to assist me with such patient fidelity, and to defend me against all the assaults of my enemies.

Blessed be the hour in which thou wast assigned my guardian, my defender and my patron. In acknowledgement and return for all thy loving ministries to me, I offer thee the infinitely precious and noble heart of Jesus, and I firmly promise to obey thee henceforward, and most faithfully serve my God.
~Amen~
