Thanks for posting the complete prayer. In my parish, we recite that prayer after every Mass. It is always funny to see visitors to the church look in bewilderment as the congregation remains standing, and after the last note of the recessional hymnn - immediately begins that prayer.

One of our parishes we attend recites the St. Michael prayer after daily Mass. And they have an awesome statue of St. Michael as well. I liked the mention of Gregorian Chant in this post ... when I recently put together a site with audios of the Rosary, I included first some chant ... I will leave this chant on sometimes all day long ... I have read it dispels darkness and chases away demons ... it's beautiful ...

SAINT Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle;
be our defense against the wickedness and snares of
the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray.
And do thou, O prince of the heavenly host,
by the power of God thrust into hell Satan and all
the evil spirits who prowl about the world for
the ruin of souls. Amen.
