Saint 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 Host,
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.
The Prayer at Dawn, and the Prayer to St. Michael are said before the Creed and the 7 Our Father’s, 7 Hail Mary’s, and 7 Glory Be’s for our bishop (8:00 a.m. prayers).
