Inaugural Prayer

 Dear Father in Heaven. You are all-around us, keeping us, everyone we know, and the universe itself in its very existence by your Holy Will. Your Son Jesus taught us to keep our prayers simple and humble, and so we ask of You for the United States three things:"

  "First, we ask you to protect the lives and health of Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney, even if miraculous means are necessary, as they prepare and take office in the coming days and years. Those whom You protect cannot be injured! May Your Holy Angels protect them always."

  "Second, we ask You to infuse these men and the elected and appointed officials with whom they work with a hyper-abundance of supernatural power and grace to make and execute only decisions which are in accord with Your Holy Will, especially regarding the protection and sanctity of human life from conception to a natural death. We beg you to perfect their imperfections in Your perfection."

  "Finally, we ask you to inflame in a mighty way the hearts of the citizens these leaders serve. Never allow us to forget that all authority comes from You and You Alone, and that Your Son is King of Kings, and that You are always ready to answer our prayers for peace, prosperity, and justice--if we but only pray! We commit ourselves to daily prayer for all our elected leaders, regardless of party or principle, from this day forward, from time into eternity,

Amen."

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 power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who wander throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls.

Most sacred heart of Jesus, have mercy on us.

Most sacred heart of Jesus, have mercy on us.

Most sacred heart of Jesus, have mercy on us.  Amen
