Prayer's to Saint Anthony For Life's Lost and Found

Yes, I am Catholic, born and raised! Growing up, my aunt always said a prayer to Saint Anthony when something was lost. Hey, guess what!? Nine times out of ten, that item was found shortly after the prayer! I've done this for years and Saint Anthony quickly became my favorite Saint! Well, this morning, I am searching high and low for a specific shirt I want my oldest daughter to wear today. I love doing the matching thing where the whole family coordinates colors! So here goes...
Saint Anthony, perfect imitator of Jesus, who received from God the special power of restoring lost things, grant that I may find Kathleen's grey oldest sister t-shirt which has been lost. As least restore to me peace and tranquility of mind, the loss of which has afflicted me even more than my material loss.
To this favor I ask another of you: that I may always remain in possession of the true good that is God. Let me rather lose all things than lose God, my supreme good. Let me never suffer the loss of my greatest treasure, eternal life with God. Amen.
