Oh Saint Nicholas,
You who dedicated your life to charity and compassion,
You were a light of generosity for the poor,
A protector for sailors in distress,
And a defender of the most vulnerable.
Saint Nicholas,
We ask you to watch over us in our daily lives,
To inspire our hearts to generosity,
And to guide us on the path of holiness.
Intercede for us with God,
That we may live with faith,
Hope and love,
And that we may share these blessings
With everyone we meet.
Help us to follow your example,
Seeking justice,
Practising charity,
And defending the oppressed.
Saint Nicholas,
Pray for us that we may
Grow in God's grace,
And finally join in the eternal joy
Of the Kingdom of heaven.
Amen.
