Prayer to St. Dominic Savio, Patron of Choir Boys
Great model for God-loving boys and cherished pupil of the famous Don Bosco, who died prematurely, humanly speaking, but you had already attained mature spiritual wisdom. Your kindness won you many friends but your love above all sought the Master who is present in our tabernacles. His praises you Eucharistically sang. Make choir boys be singers like you for the love of Jesus, our most loving Master. Amen.

Dear Saint
Dominic, you spent your short life totally for love of Jesus and
His Mother. Help youth today to realize the importance of God in
their lives. You became a saint through fervent participation in
the sacraments, enlighten parents and children to the importance
of frequent confession and Holy Communion. At a young age you
meditated on the sorrowful Passion of Our Lord. Obtain for us the
grace of a fervent desire to suffer for love of Him.
We desperately need your intercession to protect today's children
from the snares of the world. Watch over them and lead them on
the narrow road to Heaven. Ask God to give us the grace to
sanctify our daily duties by performing them perfectly out of
love for Him. Remind us of the necessity of practicing virtue
especially in times of trial.
Saint Dominic Savio, you who preserved your Baptismal innocence
of heart, pray for us.
St. Dominic Savio's Prayer to Our Lady
O Mary, I give you my heart. Grant me to be always yours. Jesus and Mary, be ever my friends; and, for love of you, grant me to die a thousand deaths rather than to have the misfortune of committing a single mortal sin.
feast day: May 6
