Angel of God, my guardian dear,
To whom God’s love commits me here,
Ever this day be at my side
To light and guard,
To rule and guide.

I know that my Guardian Angel has helped me through many scrapes.
I just learned this one that seems much less juvenile and I like a lot better:
Guardian Angel, protector of my soul and body, to your care I’ve been entrusted by Christ. Obtain for me the forgiveness of the sins committed by me this day and protect me from the snares of my enemies that I may never more offend God by my sin. Pray for me, your sinful and unworthy servant, that through your help I may become worthy of the grace and the mercy of the most Holy Trinity and the Mother of our Lord God, Jesus Christ, with all the saints. amen
