O
Holy Apostle, because you are the Rock upon which Almighty God has built His
church; obtain for me I pray you, lively faith, firm hope and burning love;
complete detachment from myself, contempt of the world, patience in adversity,
humility in prosperity, recollection in prayer, purity of heart, a right
intention in all my works, diligence in fulfilling the duties of my state of
life, constancy in my resolutions, resignation to the will of God and
perseverance in the grace of God even unto death; that so, by means of your
intercession and your glorious merits, I may be worthy to appear before the
chief and eternal Shepherd of souls, Jesus Christ, Who with the Father and the
Holy Spirit lives and reigns for ever. Amen.
