I've a request, St. Joseph,
Help me have integrity,        
Help me express daily,
Reverence and charity.  

Help me think right with clearness,
As you  did while on the earth:
Help me to be more like you,      
Help me so I'll show my worth.        

Help me not be aggressive
To others but kind and meek:      
The good that is in others,
St. Joseph, it help me seek.            

A life that pleases God most,
Help me so it I'll pursue:
To Jesus the Good Shepherd,
Help me always to be true.
