St. Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our safeguard against
the wickedness and
snares of the Devil.
May God rebuke him,
we humbly pray,
and do thou,
O Prince of the
heavenly hosts,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan,
and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls.
AMEN.
