Prayer in Time of Danger at the Hands of Others

Heavenly Father,
Forgive those who trespass against me
For they know not what they do.

Protect us from evil
And shield us from harm.

You are my armor, my protection, and my sword.

Preserve us in our hour of need,
In Jesus' name.

Amen.

Prayer in time of Danger

O God, Who knowest us to be set in the midst of such great perils, that, by reason of the weakness of our nature, we cannot stand upright, grant us such health of mind and body, that those evils which we suffer for our sins we may overcome through Thine assistance. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Prayer for the Protection of Innocent Life

Lord, protect the innocent who rely on thy mercy

We, the innocent, imperiled by war, cry to you for protection in our hour of need.

Protect us!
Spare the babe in the womb, the baby at the breast.
Save the child in tears, the teenager cold, hungry and alone
Shield the young men and women who face the fires of the enemy
Defend the mothers and fathers who watch at the window
Keep the grandparents whose legacy we carry

You are our rock, our fortress, our defender!
You are our strength, and we place our faith in you.
Keep us safe from evil.

We ask your mercy, through Christ, Our Lord.

Amen

Prayer to St. 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 power of God,
thrust into hell Satan,
and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
