Psalm of the day: Psalm 121

1 A Song of Ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from?

2 My help comes from Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.

3 He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber.

4 Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 Yahweh is your keeper. Yahweh is your shade on your right hand.

6 The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.

7 Yahweh will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul.

8 Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more.

O glorious Saint Rita, advocate of impossible cases, helper in the last hour, refuge and comfort in the pain that oppresses the soul! With all confidence in your power, I come to implore you to obtain for me from God the favor I so ardently desire: (make your request).
Present to God, Father of mercy and source of all consolation, my humble and confident prayer. And you, who obtained from Jesus all that you asked, do not abandon me in this difficult hour, obtaining for me the grace of which I am so much in need. Amen.
