Devotions to St. Peregrine

Prayer to St. Peregrine

O God, who gave to St. Peregrine an Angel for his companion, the Mother of God for his Teacher, and Jesus as the Physician of his malady, grant we beseech You through his merits that we may on earth intensely love our Holy Angel, the blessed Virgin Mary, and our Savior, and in Him bless them forever. Grant that we may receive the favor which we now petition. We ask this through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

Tribute to St. Peregrine

Mercy of God endlessly flowing
Through all men sinners or saints
The empty tomb proved Christ has risen
He loves, heals and forgives our sins

(Coda)
One man was called to serve the others
Care for afflicted, enemies and friends

(Chorus 1)
St. Peregrine, the saint
Patron of the afflicted
Endowed with love and mercy
In dream Christ touched his leg and healed.

St. peregrine, we pray for healing
God hears as we invoke your name
We sing this word that heals and renews
St. Peregrine, faithful and true

(Repeat Chorus)

With Mary at your side
Faith has been strengthened
Your name just being uttered
Broken souls were cured and healed.

(Finale)
St. Peregrine, the Saint
Patron of the Afflicted
Endowed with love and mercy
Broken souls were cured and healed.

Awit Kay San Peregrino

San Peregrino, aming mahal na Patron
Pinagmilagruhan ni Jesukristo
Kami ngayon ay kahabagan mo na
Iyong ilapit nang lunas madama

San Peregrino, ikaw ang pag-asa
Pagkat ikaw ay linkgkod ni Maria
lahat ng sakit idulog sa Kanya
Upang mapawi na yaring dusa

Ang aming sala ay pinagsisisihan
Nang taos sa puso at kalooban
Kami’y tulungan, ipagdasal mo na
Nang patawarin kami ng Diyos Ama

San Peregrino, ikaw ang pag-asa
Pagkat ikaw ay linkgkod ni Maria
lahat ng sakit idulog sa Kanya
Upang mapawi na yaring dusa

Ang Pagpaparangal Kay San Peregrino

O mapagmahal na Ama,

Pasasalamat sa lahat ng ibinigay mo sa amin.

Pinagkalooban mo ang aming Kapatid na si San Peregrino ng kagalingan sa kanyang karamdaman na kanser. Ang magandang halimbawa ng kanyang buhay ang pumukaw sa amin upang kami ay dumulog sa iyo.

Basbasan nawa ang iyong mapagpalang awa ang aming pagdurusa dulot ng sakit na kanser at iba pang karamdaman na wala ng lunas. Pagkalooban mo kami ng lakas at kalusugan ng katawan upang kami ay magkaroon ng masaya at mahabang buhay. Aliwin mo kami kung sumapit ang mabigat na pagsubok. Hipuin mo ang aming sakit at dusa na unti-unting nagdudulot ng takot at kawalang pag-asa.

Naniniwala kami, o Mapagmahal na Ama na katulad ni San Peregrino, ipagkaloob mo sa aming buhay ang hiling na kagalingan at ang walang kupas na kaligayahan dito sa lupa at sa Iyong kaharian. Walang hanggang pasasalamat at papuri sa iyo, o Diyos Ama sa langit.

Amen
