Invoke Michael the archangel to protect us at night while we sleep
Sweet Jesus receive our souls! May the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Joseph, and all the Saints and Angels, glorify and love the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
For us, this night, and pray for us to our Lord, that we may be preserved during it from all sin and evil.
Blessed St. Michael, defend us in the day of battle, that we may not be lost at the dreadful judgment.
O Angels of God to whose care we are committed by the Supreme Majesty, enlighten, govern and defend us, this night, from all sin and danger.
Save us, O Lord, waking, and keep us sleeping, that we may watch with Christ, and rest in peace. Amen.
(from Catholically)
This prayer reminds us of our vulnerability, especially at night when we lay down to sleep. It encourages us to ask Saint Michael to help us on our journey toward holiness. By asking for protection, we recognise that we are not alone. Even though our society pushes for individuality, we owe it to ourselves as Christians to show the universality of love and support each other in love.
