Prayer to St. Louis

To thee do we have recourse in prayer, Saint Louis, lily of virginity, bright and shining star, and vessel of holiness. Through thine intercession pour forth the blessings of heaven upon the Catholic nations to which thou art allied, and over which thou hast been set by God as their protector. Do thou entreat Almighty God and the immaculate Virgin, that the Christian peoples may once again be quickened by the faith of their fathers, that charity may burn fervently amongst them, and that their way of life may be made conformable to the law of God. Obtain true peace and concord for both rulers and people, the victory of our Holy Mother the Church over her enemies, perfect freedom for the Vicar of Christ in his sacred government of souls, and eternal happiness in heaven for all of us who implore thy mighty assistance. Amen. (Raccolta)
