Catholic Prayers for a Happy Death

O glorious St. Philip, faithful helper of thy dying children, be thou my father and protector in the hour of my death.  Let not the devil overcome me; let not temptation oppress me, nor fear overwhelm me in that hour; but grant through thy intercession that, fortified by faith, hope and charity, I may bear all things with patience and perseverance, and may happily die the death of the just.  Amen.
