Saint
Joseph
Novena Prayer to the Miraculous Infant of Prague
(Should
be prayed especially from December 17th through the 25th)
Dearest Jesus, Little Infant of Prague, how tenderly You love us!
Your greatest joy is to dwell among us and to bestow Your blessing
upon us. Though I am not worthy that You should help me, I feel
drawn to You by love because You are kind and merciful.
So
many who turned to You with confidence have received graces
and had their petitions granted. Behold me as I come before You to
lay open my heart to You with its prayers and hopes. I present to
You especially this request, which I enclose in Your loving Heart:
(Mention your request).
Rule over me, dear Infant Jesus,
and do with me and mine
according to Your Holy Will, for I
know that in Your Divine Wisdom
and Love You will arrange
everything for the best. Do not withdraw
Your hand from me,
but protect and bless me forever.
I pray You, all-powerful
and gracious Infant Jesus, for the sake
of Your Sacred
Infancy, in the Name of Your Blessed
Mother Mary who cared for You
with such tenderness,
and by the greatest reverence with which St.
Joseph carried You in his arms,
help me in my needs.
Make me truly happy with You, dearest Infant, in time and in
eternity, and I shall thank You forever with all my heart.
Amen.
