To St. Raphael,
Angel of Happy Meetings
O Raphael, lead us
towards those we are waiting for, those who are waiting for us!
Raphael, Angel of Happy Meetings, lead us by the hand towards those we
are looking for! May all our movements, all their movements, be guided
by your Light and transfigured by your Joy.
Angel Guide of
Tobias, lay the request we now address to you at the feet of Him on
whose unveiled Face you are privileged to gaze. Lonely and tired,
crushed by the separations and sorrows of earth, we feel the need of
calling to you and of pleading for the protection of your wings, so
that we may not be as strangers in the Province of Joy, all ignorant
of the concerns of our country.
Remember the weak,
you who are strong—you whose home lies beyond the region of thunder,
in a land that is always peaceful, always serene, and bright with the
resplendent glory of God. Amen.
