Prayer of St Francis de Sales to St. Joseph

I want to share with you a beautiful prayer to St. Joseph that I just came across. I have never seen it before.

Glorious St Joseph, spouse of Mary, grant us thy paternal protection, we beseech thee by the heart of Jesus Christ. O thou, whose power extends to all our necessities and can render possible for us the most impossible things, open thy fatherly eyes to the needs of thy children.

In the trouble and distress which afflicts us, we confidently have recourse to thee. Deign to take under your charitable charge this important and difficult matter, cause of our worries. Make its happy outcome be for God's glory and for the good of His devoted servants. Amen.

That's a good one; I copied it into my St. Joseph prayer book. Thanks!
