O holy St Norbert, gentlest of saints,
your love for Jesus Christ
truly present in every tabernacle around the world
and your charity for souls made you worthy
while on earth to possess miraculous powers.
Miracles waited your word,
which you were always ready to speak
for those in trouble or anxiety.
Encouraged by this thought,
I implore you to intercede for me
so that my prayers will be answered.
The answer may require a miracle;
even so, you are the saint of miracles.
O gentle and loving St Norbert,
whose heart was always full of zeal for souls,
whisper my petition into the ears of the Infant Jesus,
and the gratitude of my heart will always be yours.
