Night Prayer to Padre Pio, for peaceful sleep
Padre Pio, this day is coming to an end, voices are becoming hushed, and noises are far away – in this moment of silence, I lift up my evening prayer to you. Let me pass the night peacefully, in your loving arms. Through your goodness, may I always be granted a safe place to lay my head, a time of holy rest and peace in my soul.
Oh Padre Pio, through this night prayer, I entrust to you the struggles, the worries, and the joys of this day. If I was unfaithful, if I was selfish, if I gave in to anger, and if I was a problem for someone, forgive me. Forgive me all the sins I’ve committed today and fill my heart with your love. Glorious Padre Pio, there are great problems in my life that I have to face, and important decisions that I have to make; I’m confused and worried. I can’t find the solutions I need.
Loving Padre Pio, as I sleep tonight, come to my aid and show me which path to take. Let your voice speak to my mind and my heart. Bring serenity to this house and peace to my spirit; ease my tension and shower me with trust and hope. Dearest Padre Pio, protect those who feel alone and abandoned, relieve those who are ill of their suffering, comfort those who feel mistrusted and depressed, and lift up those who waver in their faith.
Watch over me, Padre Pio, as I, with trust, drift off to sleep. Protect me from evil and from the adversary’s attacks. Give me a charitable heart, teach me to be more generous, and help me to do good works with no thought for earthly compensation. Padre Pio, I will sleep peacefully with you by my side. Amen
