Prayer to St. Rocco
O Great St. Rocco, deliver us,
we beseech thee, from the
scourges of God; through thy
intercession, preserve our
bodies from contagious
diseases, and our souls from
the contagion of sin.
Obtain for us salubrious air;
but, above all, purity of heart.
Assist us to make good use
of health, to bear sufferings
with patience; and, after thy
example, to live in the practice
of penance and charity, that
we may one day enjoy the
happiness which thou has
merited by thy virtues.
St. Rocco, pray for us-3 times.
