Prayer to St. Anthony

O Holy St. Anthony, gentlest of Saints, your love of God and Charity of His creatures, made you worthy, when on earth, to possess miraculous powers, Miracles waited on your word, which you were ever ready to speak for those in trouble and anxiety.

Encouraged by this thought, I implore you to obtain for me {your request here}. The answer to my prayer may require a miracle, even so, you are the Saint of Miracles.

O gentle and loving St. Anthony, whose heart was ever full of human sympathy, whisper my petition into the ears of the sweet infant Jesus, who loved to be folded in your arms; and the gratitude of my heart will ever be yours. Amen.
