St. Blase Prayer
O God, deliver us through the intercession of your holy bishop and martyr Blase, from all evil of soul and body, especially from all ills of the throat, and grant us the grace to make a good confession in the confident hope of obtaining your pardon, and ever to praise with worthy lips your most holy name, through Christ our Lord. Amen.
