Litany of St. Alphonsus Liguori

Holy Mary, Virgin Immaculate, pray for us.
Saint Alphonsus, model of piety, from tenderest youth, pray for us.
St. Alphonsus, preserved even till death from mortal sin,
Despiser of the riches and vanities of the world,
Always subject to the voice of Divine Providence,
Rich in the treasures of Christian poverty,
Model of patience in pains and afflictions,
Model of meekness and of resignation in contradictions,
Burning with a holy zeal for the salvation of souls,

Scourge of heresies,
Defender of the Catholic Faith,
Always occupied in evangelizing the poor,
Tender comforter of the afflicted,

Pray for us.

Instructed in the divine art of converting sinners,
Enlightened guide in the path of perfection,
Who became all things to all men, to gain all to Jesus Christ,
New ornament of religion,
Bold champion of ecclesiastical discipline,
Model of submission and devotion to the Sovereign Pontiff,
Who watched unceasingly over the flock committed to you,
Full of solicitude to procure the common good of the Church,
Glory of the Priesthood and of the Episcopate,
Shining mirror of all virtues,
Full of tenderest love for the Infant Jesus,
Inflamed with divine heat in offering the Holy Sacrifice,
Fervent worshipper of Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist,
Penetrated with lively grief at the meditation of the sufferings of our Divine Saviour,

Specially devoted to the worship of Mary,
Honored by the apparition of the Blessed Virgin, while preaching in her honor,

Pray for us.

Of angelic life and purity,
True Patriarch in your paternal solicitude for the people of God,
Endowed with the gift of prophecy and miracles,
Apostle by the extent and fruit of your labors,
Martyr through your unheard-of austerities,
Confessor by your writings full of the Spirit of God,
Virgin by purity of body and soul,
Founder of the Order of the Most Holy Redeemer,
Model of Missionaries,
Our tender father and powerful protector,

Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world,
Pardon us, O Lord.
Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world,
Hear us, O Lord.
Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world,
Have pity on us.
Christ, hear us.
Christ, graciously hear us.

Pray for us, St. Alphonsus Liguori!
That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let us pray.

I present myself, O Saint Alphonsus, before you, who were so inflamed with love for your neighbor, and so burning with zeal to procure the grace of conversion for sinners. Humbly prostrate at your feet, I implore your effectual protection; obtain for me, I beg of you, a true contrition for my sins, and the entire reformation of my life. Once more, make my heart become, and remain forever, kindled with love for God, and for the most holy Virgin Mary, for whom you had so tender a devotion. Obtain me the grace to walk in the ways of holiness and justice, that I may one day merit to enjoy my God with you eternally in heaven. Amen.
