PRAYER TO SAINT MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL

St. Michael the Archangel,  defend us in battle,  be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil;  may God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou  O Prince of the heavenly hosts,  by the divine power, thrust into hell Satan  and all the evil spirits  who prowl about the world  seeking the ruin of souls.  Amen. O glorious prince St. Michael, chief and commander of the heavenly hosts, guardian of souls, vanquisher of rebel spirits, servant in the house of the Divine King and our admirable conductor, you who shine with excellence and superhuman virtue deliver us from all evil, who turn to you with confidence and enable us by your gracious protection to serve God more and more faithfully every day.
