Novena to Our Guardian Angels

O most faithful companions, appointed by our Heavenly Father to be our guardians, we thank you for your kindness, caring and love, and for the benefits you have obtained for us. O holy angels, watch over us while we sleep. Comfort us when we are sad. Avert dangers that threaten us, and warn us of those to come. Turn us away from sin, and inspire us to do good. Encourage us to penance when we fall, and reconcile us to God. Do not leave us, heavenly guides. Comfort us in adversity, humble us in success, defend us in danger, and assist us in temptations, lest at any time we fall beneath them. Offer up in the sight of the Divine Majesty our prayers and petitions… [mention them here] …and all our charitable works, and help us persevere in grace until we enter into everlasting life. Amen. Conclude with one Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.
