Prayer for the Moral Renewal of Our Country
The prayer reads:
Lord, we ask You to send Saint Michael and all the host of heaven to battle against the forces of evil and death in our nation. We ask specifically that the moral degradation of our country be reversed and that we will enter a time of moral renewal. We ask that all human beings be respected and their lives protected by law, and that our nation's inhabitants will turn to you in purity, trust, selflessness, love, and faith. With this intention in mind, we offer this prayer:
Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection 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 Divine Power of God, cast into hell satan and all the evil spirits who roam through the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
