Prayers of Devotion to Saint Sharbel Makhlouf
1. Prayer to Saint Sharbel
O
Lord, infinitely holy and glorified in your saints, you inspired the holy monk
and hermit Sharbel to live and die in the way of Jesus Christ and gave him the
strength to detach himself from the world in order to make the monastic virtues
triumph in his hermitage.
We implore you to bestow upon us the grace to love you and to serve you by following his example.
God Almighty, who manifested the power of Saint Sharbel's intercession by numerous miracles and favors, grant us, through his intercession, this grace (state your prayer intention here). Amen.
Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed by Thy name; they kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with Thee; Blessed art Thou among women and blessed is the fruit of Thy womb Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.
Glory to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
