Night Prayer for Protection

O God, our refuge and our strength, as darkness covers the earth I ask for Your protection this night.

Guard this home from every danger, seen and unseen. Send Saint Michael the Archangel to stand watch at our door, and let no evil come near this dwelling or those who sleep within it.

Keep watch over my family in every place they rest tonight. Calm every fear, still every restless thought, and let Your peace be a wall around us until morning.

Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
