To Honor St. Joseph Josephite Fathers
Fifth Sunday:
Watchful guardian, bosom friend of the incarnate Son of God, glorious St. Joseph, how didst thou toil to nurture and to serve the Son of the Most High, especially in the flight into Egypt; but far greater was thy joy in having with thee God Himself, and in seeing Egypt's idols fall to the earth!By this thy sorrow and thy joy, obtain for us to keep aloof from the infernal tyrant, quitting all dangerous occasions, that all earthly idols may be cast out from our hearts, and that, employed in the service of Jesus and Mary, we may ever live for them alone, and with them calmly die.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be to the Father.
Ant. Jesus was about thirty years old, being, as was supposed, the son of Joseph
V. Pray for us, Blessed Joseph
R. That was may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Let
us pray: God, Who in Thine ineffable providence didst vouchsafe to
choose blessed Joseph to be the husband of Thy most holy Mother: grant,
we beseech Thee, that we may be made worthy to receive him for our
intercessor in heaven, whom on earth we venerate as our holy protector.
Who livest and reignest world without end. Amen.
