Prayer to Saint Anthony of Padua

O beloved Saint Anthony,
known throughout the world for your many miracles,
and represented everywhere with Jesus,
who came as a child to rest in your arms.
Obtain for me from His goodness the grace
that I ardently desire in my heart.

You who were so good and merciful
 towards poor sinners
do not look at the poverty of whom is praying to you,
but look instead to the infinite love of God,
 that by your faith
and your life spent for Him, may now manifest itself
in my present necessity.
To you I offer my humble prayers:
and by your intercession,
bring them to the heart of God.

You who were a missionary and great preacher
of the Gospel of Christ,
allow that I can always give testimony
with words of hope and actions of charity,
the joy and beauty of the Christian life.

Make me be able to accept from your arms
Jesus, that you are giving me,
so that I too can embrace Him tenderly
and guard him always in my heart.

Saint Anthony of Padua,
pray for us!
