You have a Guardian Angel

Who watches over you –

Everywhere you go

And everything you do.

This gentle, silent helper

Is there to be your guide

To shelter and protect you,

And for you to walk beside.

Your Angel will always help you

Whenever things go wrong,

They’ll be the wings beneath your feet

As Life’s path you walk along.

Feel this calming presence –

Be enfolded by its love

And let your life be guided

By a power from above.

Guardian Angel Poems

DEAR ANGEL AT MY SIDE PRAYER

Dear Angel at my side, my good and loyal friend, you have been with me since the moment I was born. You are my own personal guardian, given me by God as my guide and protector, and you will stay with me till I die. He who created you and me gave me to you as your particular charge. You assisted in great joy at my baptism, when I became part of the Mystical Body of Christ, and was made a member of the household of God and an heir of heaven. You saw the dangers that beset my path, and, if I sinned, it was in spite of you. You envied me when Christ came to me in Holy Communion. Even though you probably were there among the angels that adored Him the night that He was born, you have not been able to receive Him as I can. O, help me to appreciate these gifts! Help me to realize, as you do, with every fiber of my being, that to serve Christ is to be a King! Help me steadfastly to avoid evil and do good and always guard my soul from sin. Protect me as well from physical evils as I go about my daily work. You will be with me all my life, and at the hour of my death. Help me to face death bravely, patiently, with great love of God, knowing that it is only through death that I can come to Him in heaven! Then, come with me to my Judge, and when the hour of my salvation comes, take me home to my Father, God. Amen.

The Different Kinds of Angels

The word Angel means a messenger. Each of the Angels has a different name. But they are all messengers who serve God. There are many kinds of Angels in Heaven. Some are more important and are called Archangels, such as Gabriel and Raphael. Others are sent by God to earth to be our guardians. They go with us everywhere we go, protecting us and watching over us. We call these our Guardian Angels.

And they come from Heaven to earth when God so commands them. Sometimes they stay on to protect a city or to watch over a newborn baby or to be our companions all our life.

I My GUARDIAN ANGEL
