Back of Card contains a brief biography of our saint, along with the famous prayer he composed: " I arise today through God's strength to pilot me, God's might to uphold me, God's wisdom to guide me, God's eye to look before me, God's ear to hear me, God's word to speak for me, God's hand to guard me, God's way to lie before me, God's shield to protect me from snares of devils, from temptations of vices, from everyone who will wish me ill, afar and anear, alone and in multitude. Christ with me, Christ, before me, Christ behind me, Christ on my right, Christ on my left, Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ when I arise, Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me, Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me, Christ in every eye that sees me, Christ in every ear that hears me.
