O Holy St. Philip Neri, Patron Saint of joy,
you who trusted Scripture’s promise
that the Lord is always at hand
and that we need not have anxiety about anything,
in your compassion heal our worries and sorrows
and lift the burdens from our hearts.
We come to you as one whose heart swells
with abundant love for God and all creation.
Keep us safe through your loving intercession,
and may the joy of the Holy Spirit which filled your heart,
St. Philip, transform our lives and bring us peace.
Amen.
