The chaplet is composed of seven mysteries in which we contemplate the seven joys and seven sorrows that St. Joseph had in his lifetime. For each mystery, we pray one Our Father, ten Hail Josephs and a Glory Be.
1) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at the virgin Mary’s pregnancy, be my guide through life and death.
2) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at Jesus’ birth, be my guide through life and death.
3) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at the circumcision of Jesus, be my guide through life and death.
4) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at the prophecy of Simeon, be my guide through life and death.
5) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at the flight into Egypt, be my guide through life and death.
6) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at the return from Egypt, be my guide through life and death.
7) St. Joseph, by your sorrow and joy at the loss and the finding of the Child Jesus in the temple, be my guide through life and death.
Hail JosephHail Joseph, Son of David, the just and the chaste,Wisdom is with you; Blessed are you among all men, and blessed is Jesus, the fruit of Mary, your faithful spouse. Holy Joseph, worthy foster-father and guardian of Jesus Christ and of the holy Church, pray for us sinners and obtain divine wisdom for us from God, now and at the hour of our death. Amen. |
