Columban Daily Prayer

Courageous martyr of God,
glorious St. Boniface:
if once so miserable and weak,
you knew how to obtain the aid
which the liberal hand of God gave you
to rise from the quagmire of sin.
Prostrate at your feet I beg you
to offer to the eternal Father
the ardent desires, loving steps,
and fervent preaching of His only begotten Son
for those wretched ones who
have closed their ears to the calls
of the Divine Shepherd;
and free us from such harm.

Amen.
