Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel
Composed by Pope Leo XIII in 1886 and long prayed after Low Mass. Many parishes pray it after Mass today.
St. 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, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits
who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
