The “Guardian Angel Prayer (Angel of God)” is a cherished Catholic prayer that acknowledges the loving presence of the angel God has assigned to watch over and guide us throughout our lives. This simple yet powerful prayer asks our guardian angel for protection, guidance, and help in staying on the path to Heaven.
Based on Sacred Scripture’s teaching that God sends His angels to guard us (Psalm 91:11), this prayer is often taught to children but remains a beautiful devotion for Catholics of all ages.
This prayer is featured in our book, Catholic Prayers & Devotions: A Treasury of Grace for the Faithful (Volume I). Available on Amazon in e-book, paperback, and hardcover.
Angel of God,
my guardian dear,
To whom God’s love commits me here.
Ever this day be at my side,
To light and guard,
to rule and guide.
Amen.
