Let us pray O God, who in Your ineffable providence do vouchsafe to choose blessed Joseph to be the spouse of Your most holy Mother; grant, we beseech You, that we may have him for our intercessor in Heaven, whom we venerate as our protector on earth: who lives and reigns world without end. Amen. |
