Novena Prayer to St. Anthony of Padua
O Holy St. Anthony, gentlest of Saints, your
love for God and charity for His creatures,
made you worthy, when on earth, to possess
miraculous powers. Miracles waited on your
words, which you were ever ready to speak for
those in trouble or anxiety. Encouraged by this
thought, I implore you to obtain for me
(request). The answer to my prayer
may require a miracle. Even so, you are
the Saint of Miracles.
O gentle and loving St. Anthony, whose heart
was ever full of human sympathy, whisper my
petition into the ears of the Sweet Infant Jesus,
who loved to folded in your arms, and the
gratitude of my heart will ever be yours.
Amen.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.
