Prayer to St. Anthony of Padua.
If then you ask for miracles,
Death, error all calamities,
The leprosy and demons fly,
And health succeeds infirmities.
The sea obeys, and fetters break,
And lifeless limbs thou dost restore;
Whilst treasures lost are found again,
When young and old thine aid implore.
AH dangers vanish at thy prayer,
And direst need doth quickly flee;
Let those who know, thy power proclaim,
Let Paduans say: These are of thee.
The sea obeys, and fetters break,
And lifeless limbs thou dost restore;
Whilst treasures lost are found again,
When young and old thine aid implore.
To the Father, Son, may glory be
And Holy Ghost eternally.
The sea obeys, etc.
V. Pray for us, blessed Anthony.
R. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Let us pray.
O God! may the votive commemoration of blessed Anthony, Thy Confessor, be a source of joy to thy Church, that she may always be fortified with spiritual assistance, and deserve to enjoy eternal rewards. Through Christ, our Lord. Amen
