Santa Cecilia in ivory
Prayer to Saint CeciliaO Glorious Saint Cecilia,
apostle of charity,
mirror of purity and model of a Christian wife!
Clothe us with inviolable trust
in the mercy of God,
for infinite merits
of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Expand our hearts, so that,
burning with the love of God,
let us never stray
of eternal salvation.
Glorious Patroness of ours,
may your examples of faith and virtue
be a cry of warning to us all,
so that we may always be attentive to the will of God,
in prosperity and in trials,
on the path to heaven and eternal salvation.
So be it.
