Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation: But deliver us from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary, full of grace; The Lord is with thee; Blessed art thou amongst women, And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth.
And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried: he descended into hell; the third day he arose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven; sitteth at the right hand of God the Father almighty: from thence he shall come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins. The resurrection of the body. And life everlasting. Amen.
V. O Lord, ✠ open thou my lips.
R. And my mouth shall declare thy praise.
V. O God, ✝ come to my assistance;
R. O Lord, make haste to help me.

Hymnus {ex Commune aut Festo}
Iste Confessor Dómini coléntes,
Quem pie laudant pópuli per orbem,
Hac die lætus meruit beatas,
Scandere sedes.
Qui pius, prudens, humilis, pudicus,
Sobriam duxit sine labe vitam,
Donec humanos animávit auræ
Spíritus artus.
Cujus ob præstans meritum, frequenter,
Ægra quæ passim jacuere membra,
Viribus morbi domitis, salúti
Restituúntur.
Noster hinc illi chorus obsequentem
Concinit laudem celebresque palmas,
Ut piis ejus precibus juvemur
Omne per ævum.
Sit salus illi, decus atque virtus,
Qui, super cæli solio coruscans,
Totius mundi seriem gubernat,
Trinus et unus.
Amen.

Hymn {from the Common or Feast}
This the confessor of the Lord, whose triumph
Now all the faithful celebrate, with gladness
Erst on this feast-day merited to enter
Into his glory.
Saintly and prudent, modest in behaviour,
Peaceful and sober, chaste was he, and lowly.
While that life's vigour, coursing through his members,
Quickened his being.
Sick ones of old time, to his tomb resorting,
Sorely by ailments manifold afflicted,
Oft-times have welcomed health and strength returning,
At his petition.
Whence we in chorus gladly do him honour,
Chanting his praises with devout affection,
That in his merits we may have a portion,
Now and forever.
His be the glory, power and salvation,
Who over all things reigneth in the highest,
Earth's mighty fabric ruling and directing,
Onely and Trinal.
Amen.

52:3 Deus de cælo prospéxit super fílios hóminum: * ut vídeat si est intélligens, aut requírens Deum.

52:5 Nonne scient omnes qui operántur iniquitátem, * qui dévorant plebem meam ut cibum panis?
52:6 Deum non invocavérunt: * illic trepidavérunt timóre, ubi non erat timor.

54:2 Contristátus sum in exercitatióne mea: * et conturbátus sum a voce inimíci, et a tribulatióne peccatóris.
54:3 Quóniam declinavérunt in me iniquitátes: * et in ira molésti erant mihi.
54:4 Cor meum conturbátum est in me: * et formído mortis cécidit super me.
54:5 Timor et tremor venérunt super me: * et contexérunt me ténebræ.
54:6 Et dixi: Quis dabit mihi pennas sicut colúmbæ, * et volábo, et requiéscam?
54:7 Ecce, elongávi fúgiens: * et mansi in solitúdine.
54:8 Exspectábam eum, qui salvum me fecit * a pusillanimitáte spíritus et tempestáte.
54:9 Præcípita, Dómine, dívide linguas eórum: * quóniam vidi iniquitátem, et contradictiónem in civitáte.
54:10 Die ac nocte circúmdabit eam super muros ejus iníquitas: * et labor in médio ejus, et injustítia.
54:11 Et non defécit de platéis ejus * usúra, et dolus.
54:12 Quóniam si inimícus meus maledixísset mihi, * sustinuíssem útique.
54:13 Et si is, qui óderat me, super me magna locútus fuísset, * abscondíssem me fórsitan ab eo.
54:14 Tu vero, homo unánimis: * dux meus, et notus meus:

Psalm 54 [2]
54:1 Hear, O God, my prayer, and despise not my supplication: * be attentive to me and hear me.
54:2 I am grieved in my exercise; * and am troubled, at the voice of the enemy, and at the tribulation of the sinner.
54:3 For they have cast iniquities upon me; * and in wrath they were troublesome to me.
54:4 My heart is troubled within me: * and the fear of death is fallen upon me.
54:5 Fear and trembling are come upon me: * and darkness hath covered me.
54:6 And I said: Who will give me wings like a dove, * and I will fly and be at rest?
54:7 Lo, I have gone far off flying away; * and I abode in the wilderness.
54:8 I waited for him that hath saved me * from pusillanimity of spirit, and a storm.
54:9 Cast down, O Lord, and divide their tongues; * for I have seen iniquity and contradiction in the city.
54:10 Day and night shall iniquity surround it upon its walls: * and in the midst thereof are labour, and injustice.
54:11 And usury and deceit * have not departed from its streets.
54:12 For if my enemy had reviled me, * I would verily have borne with it.
54:13 And if he that hated me had spoken great things against me, * I would perhaps have hidden myself from him.
54:14 But thou a man of one mind, * my guide, and my familiar.
54:15 Who didst take sweetmeats together with me: * in the house of God we walked with consent.
54:16 Let death come upon them, * and let them go down alive into hell.
54:16 For there is wickedness in their dwellings: * in the midst of them.
54:17 But I have cried to God: * and the Lord will save me.
54:18 Evening and morning, and at noon I will speak and declare: * and he shall hear my voice.
54:19 He shall redeem my soul in peace from them that draw near to me: * for among many they were with me.
54:20 God shall hear, * and the Eternal shall humble them.
54:21 For there is no change with them, and they have not feared God: * he hath stretched forth his hand to repay.
54:22 They have defiled his covenant, they are divided by the wrath of his countenance, * and his heart hath drawn near.
54:23 His words are smoother than oil, * and the same are darts.
54:24 Cast thy care upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: * he shall not suffer the just to waver for ever.
54:24 But thou, O God, shalt bring them down * into the pit of destruction.
54:24 Bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; * but I will trust in thee, O Lord.
V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
R. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

55:6 Inhabitábunt et abscóndent: * ipsi calcáneum meum observábunt.
55:7 Sicut sustinuérunt ánimam meam, pro níhilo salvos fácies illos: * in ira pópulos confrínges.
55:8 Deus, vitam meam annuntiávi tibi: * posuísti lácrimas meas in conspéctu tuo.
55:9 Sicut et in promissióne tua: * tunc converténtur inimíci mei retrórsum:
55:10 In quacúmque die invocávero te: * ecce, cognóvi, quóniam Deus meus es.
55:11 In Deo laudábo verbum, in Dómino laudábo sermónem: * in Deo sperávi, non timébo quid fáciat mihi homo.
55:12 In me sunt, Deus, vota tua, * quæ reddam, laudatiónes tibi.
55:13 Quóniam eripuísti ánimam meam de morte, et pedes meos de lapsu: * ut pláceam coram Deo in lúmine vivéntium.

55:3 From the height of the day I shall fear: * but I will trust in thee.
55:4 In God I will praise my words, in God I have put my trust: * I will not fear what flesh can do against me.
55:5 All the day long they detested my words: * all their thoughts were against me unto evil.
55:6 They will dwell and hide themselves: * they will watch my heel.
55:7 As they have waited for my soul, for nothing shalt thou save them: * in thy anger thou shalt break the people in pieces.
55:8 O God, I have declared to thee my life: * thou hast set my tears in thy sight,
55:9 As also in thy promise. * Then shall my enemies be turned back.
55:10 In what day soever I shall call upon thee, * behold I know thou art my God.
55:11 In God will I praise the word, in the Lord will I praise his speech. * In God have I hoped, I will not fear what man can do to me.
55:12 In me, O God, are vows to thee, * which I will pay, praises to thee:
55:13 Because thou hast delivered my soul from death, my feet from falling: * that I may please in the sight of God, in the light of the living.
V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
R. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Simon Peter, servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained equal faith with us in the justice of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ.
2 Grace to you and peace be accomplished in the knowledge of God and of Christ Jesus our Lord:
3 As all things of his divine power which appertain to life and godliness, are given us, through the knowledge of him who hath called us by his own proper glory and virtue.
4 By whom he hath given us most great and precious promises: that by these you may be made partakers of the divine nature: flying the corruption of that concupiscence which is in the world.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.

5 And you, employing all care, minister in your faith, virtue; and in virtue, knowledge;
6 And in knowledge, abstinence; and in abstinence, patience; and in patience, godliness;
7 And in godliness, love of brotherhood; and in love of brotherhood, charity.
8 For if these things be with you and abound, they will make you to be neither empty nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 For he that hath not these things with him, is blind, and groping, having forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord Alleluia
* And to sing praises Alleluia.

2 Pet 1:10-15
10 Wherefore, brethren, labour the more, that by good works you may make sure your calling and election. For doing these things, you shall not sin at any time.
11 For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
12 For which cause I will begin to put you always in remembrance of these things: though indeed you know them, and are confirmed in the present truth.
13 But I think it meet as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance.
14 Being assured that the laying away of this my tabernacle is at hand, according as our Lord Jesus Christ also hath signified to me.
15 And I will endeavour, that you frequently have after my decease, whereby you may keep a memory of these things.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. Let now the redeemed of the Lord Alleluia

Psalmus 57 [5]
57:1 Si vere útique justítiam loquímini: * recta judicáte, fílii hóminum.
57:2 Étenim in corde iniquitátes operámini: * in terra injustítias manus vestræ concínnant.
57:3 Alienáti sunt peccatóres a vulva, erravérunt ab útero: * locúti sunt falsa.
57:4 Furor illis secúndum similitúdinem serpéntis: * sicut áspidis surdæ, et obturántis aures suas,
57:5 Quæ non exáudiet vocem incantántium: * et venéfici incantántis sapiénter.

Nocturn II.
Psalm 57 [5]
57:1 If in very deed you speak justice: * judge right things, ye sons of men.
57:2 For in your heart you work iniquity: * your hands forge injustice in the earth.
57:3 The wicked are alienated from the womb; they have gone astray from the womb: * they have spoken false things.
57:4 Their madness is according to the likeness of a serpent: * like the deaf asp that stoppeth her ears:
57:5 Which will not hear the voice of the charmers; * nor of the wizard that charmeth wisely.
57:6 God shall break in pieces their teeth in their mouth: * the Lord shall break the grinders of the lions.
57:7 They shall come to nothing, like water running down; * he hath bent his bow till they be weakened.
57:8 Like wax that melteth they shall be taken away: * fire hath fallen on them, and they shall not see the sun.
57:9 Before your thorns could know the brier; he swalloweth them up, * as alive, in his wrath.
57:10 The just shall rejoice when he shall see the revenge: * he shall wash his hands in the blood of the sinner.
57:11 And man shall say: If indeed there be fruit to the just: * there is indeed a God that judgeth them on the earth.
V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
R. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

58:8 Behold they shall speak with their mouth, and a sword is in their lips: * for who, say they, hath heard us?
58:9 But thou, O Lord, shalt laugh at them: * thou shalt bring all the nations to nothing.
58:10 I will keep my strength to thee: for thou art my protector: * my God, his mercy shall prevent me.
58:12 God shall let me see over my enemies: slay them not, * lest at any time my people forget.
58:13 And scatter them by thy power; * and bring them down, O Lord, my protector:
58:14 For the sin of their mouth, and the word of their lips: * and let them be taken in their pride.
58:15 And for their cursing and lying they shall be talked of, when they are consumed: * when they are consumed by thy wrath, and they shall be no more.
58:16 And they shall know that God will rule Jacob, * and all the ends of the earth.
58:17 They shall return at evening and shall suffer hunger like dogs: * and shall go round about the city.
58:18 They shall be scattered abroad to eat, * and shall murmur if they be not filled.
58:19 But I will sing thy strength: * and will extol thy mercy in the morning.
58:20 For thou art become my support, * and my refuge, in the day of my trouble.
58:21 Unto thee, O my helper, will I sing, for thou art God my defence: * my God my mercy.

Ubaldus, Eugubii in Umbria nobili genere natus, a primis annis pietate et litteris egregie est institutus: jamque adolescens, ut uxorem duceret, saepe tentatus, numquam tamen a proposito servandae virginitatis recessit. Sacerdos effectus, patrimonium suum pauperibus et ecclesiis distribuit, et canonicorum regularium ordinis sancti Augustini institutum suscipiens, illud in patriam transtulit, atque in eo aliquamdiu sanctissime vixit. Cujus sanctitatis opinione evulgata, ab Honorio secundo summo Pontifice ecclesiae Eugubinae invitus praeficitur, et episcopalis consecrationis munere decoratur.

Reading 4
Ubald was born of a noble family at Gubbio in Umbria, and well established in godliness and learning from his earliest years. When he was a young man, it was often proposed to him to marry, but he never abandoned his determination to preserve his virginity. After that he was ordained Priest he divided his inheritance among the poor and Churches, and embraced the Institute of Canons Regular of St Austin. This Institute he brought to Gubbio, and for some time led therein a most holy life. When the fame of his saintliness had got noised abroad, Pope Honorius II. set him, contrary to his own wishes, over the Church of Gubbio, and he was honoured with consecration as Bishop by the hands of the said Pope himself, in the year of our Lord 1129.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.

Ad suam itaque revertens ecclesiam, cum de consueta vivendi ratione nihil admodum immutasset, in omni tamen virtutum genere eo magis eminere coepit, quo efficacius aliorum etiam salutem verbo et exemplo procuraret, factus forma gregis ex animo. Nam victu parco, vestitu moderato, lectulo aspero et pauperrimo, crucis mortificationem jugiter in suo corpore circumferebat, dum inexplebili orationis studio spiritum quotidie recrearet. Hinc admirabilem illam mansuetudinem est adeptus, qua gravissimas injurias et contumelias non modo aequanimiter tulit, verum etiam mirifico dilectionis affectu persecutores suos omni benignitatis testimonio complectebatur.
V. Tu autem, Dómine, miserére nobis.

Reading 5
When Ubald came to live as Bishop in Gubbio, he changed his way of life in no wise from that which he had led before, but his virtues began to be more eminent because his word and ensample were now more able to benefit his neighbours, to whom the shepherd of their souls was a pattern, not by outward showing only, but from his heart. He ate little, dressed simply, and slept upon a hard and very poor bed. He "always bore in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus," (2 Cor. iv. 10,) while he daily fed his soul in unceasing and earnest prayer. Hence he acquired such wonderful meekness, that when he was most grievously wronged and insulted he not only took it patiently, but, by a strange impulse of love for them, embraced his persecutors with every proof of affection.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. I have laid help upon one that is mighty, and have exalted one chosen out of My people

Biennio antequam ex hac vita migraret, cum diutinis afflictaretur infirmitatibus, inter acerbissimos corporis cruciatus, velut aurum in fornace purgatum, Deo gratias indesinenter agebat. Adveniente autem sacro Pentecostes die, cum multis annis ecclesiam sibi commissam summa cum laude gubernasset, sanctis operibus ac miraculis clarus quievit in pace. Quem Caelestinus Papa tertius in Sanctorum numerum retulit. Ejus virtus praecipue in effugandis spiritibus immundis elucet.

Reading 6
Just the space of two years before Ubald passed away from this present life, he was tried as gold in the furnace, by grievous bodily weakness, and, day after day, amid the sharpest sufferings, he never ceased patiently to give God thanks. He rested in peace on the sacred day of Pentecost, in the year 1160, having for many years governed with great praise the Church which had been entrusted to him, and glorious for good works and miracles. Pope Celestine III. numbered him with the Saints. His strength is most chiefly shown in the casting out of evil spirits. His body hath remained without corruption for all these ages, and is reverenced greatly in his native town by Christ's faithful people. To them he hath more than once shown himself good at need.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
R. This is he which wrought great wonders before God, and the whole earth is full of his teaching
* May he pray for all people, that their sins may be forgiven unto them Alleluia

61:9 But vain are the sons of men, the sons of men are liars in the balances: * that by vanity they may together deceive.
61:10 Trust not in iniquity, and cover not robberies: * if riches abound, set not your heart upon them.

Psalm 63 [10]
63:1 Hear, O God, my prayer, when I make supplication to thee: * deliver my soul from the fear of the enemy.
63:2 Thou hast protected me from the assembly of the malignant; * from the multitude of the workers of iniquity.
63:3 For they have whetted their tongues like a sword; * they have bent their bow a bitter thing, to shoot in secret the undefiled.
63:4 They will shoot at him on a sudden, and will not fear: * they are resolute in wickedness.
63:5 They have talked of hiding snares; * they have said: Who shall see them?
63:6 They have searched after iniquities: * they have failed in their search.
63:7 Man shall come to a deep heart: * and God shall be exalted.
63:8 The arrows of children are their wounds: * and their tongues against them are made weak.
63:9 All that saw them were troubled; * and every man was afraid.
63:10 And they declared the works of God: * and understood his doings.
63:11 The just shall rejoice in the Lord, and shall hope in him: * and all the upright in heart shall be praised.
V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
R. As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

67:4 Sing ye to God, sing a psalm to his name, * make a way for him who ascendeth upon the west: (bow head) The Lord is his name.
67:5 Rejoice ye before him: * but the wicked shall be troubled at his presence, who is the father of orphans, and the judge of widows.
67:6 God in his holy place: * God who maketh men of one manner to dwell in a house:
67:7 Who bringeth out them that were bound in strength; * in like manner them that provoke, that dwell in sepulchres.
67:8 O God, when thou didst go forth in the sight of thy people, * when thou didst pass through the desert:
67:9 The earth was moved, and the heavens dropped at the presence of the God of Sinai, * at the presence of the God of Israel.

67:16 The mountain of God is a fat mountain, a curdled mountain, a fat mountain; * Why suspect, ye curdled mountains?

67:22 Our God is the God of salvation: * and of the Lord, of the Lord are the issues from death.
67:23 But God shall break the heads of his enemies: * the hairy crown of them that walk on in their sins.
67:24 The Lord said: I will turn them from Basan, * I will turn them into the depth of the sea:
67:24 That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thy enemies; * the tongue of thy dogs be red with the same.
67:25 They have seen thy goings, O God, * the goings of my God: of my king who is in his sanctuary.
67:26 Princes went before joined with singers, * in the midst of young damsels playing on timbrels.
67:27 In the churches bless ye God the Lord, * from the fountains of Israel.

67:30 Command thy strength, O God: * confirm, O God, what thou hast wrought in us.
67:31 From thy temple in Jerusalem, * kings shall offer presents to thee.
67:32 Rebuke the wild beasts of the reeds, the congregation of bulls with the kine of the people; * who seek to exclude them who are tried with silver.
67:33 Scatter thou the nations that delight in wars: ambassadors shall come out of Egypt: * Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands to God.
67:34 Sing to God, ye kingdoms of the earth: * sing ye to the Lord:
67:35 Sing ye to God, who mounteth above the heaven of heavens, * to the east.
67:36 Behold he will give to his voice the voice of power: * give ye glory to God for Israel, * his magnificence, and his power is in the clouds.
67:36 God is wonderful in his saints: the God of Israel is he who will give power and strength to his people; * blessed be God.

Homilia 9. in Evangelia
Lectio sancti Evangelii, fratres carissimi, sollicite considerare nos admonet, ne nos, qui plus ceteris in hoc mundo accepisse aliquid cernimur, ab Auctore mundi gravius inde judicemur. Cum enim augentur dona, rationes etiam crescunt donorum. Tanto ergo esse humilior, atque ad serviendum Deo promptior quisque debet ex munere, quanto se obligatiorem esse conspicit in reddenda ratione. Ecce homo qui peregre proficiscitur, servos suos vocat, eisque ad negotium talenta partitur. Post multum vero temporis positurus rationem revertitur. Bene operantes pro apportato lucro remunerat, servum vero a bono opere torpentem damnat.

From the Holy Gospel according to Matthew
Matt 25:14-23
At that time Jesus spake unto His disciples this parable A man, travelling into a far country, called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. And so on.
Homily by Pope St Gregory [the Great.]
9th on the Gospels.
Dearly beloved brethren, this Lesson from the Holy Gospel moveth us to take good heed lest we, who are seen in this world to have received more than others, should thereby bring ourselves into greater condemnation from the Maker of this world. To whom much is given, of the same is much required. Therefore, let him that receiveth much, strive to be all the more lowly, and all the more ready to do God service, for his very gifts' sake, knowing that he will be obliged to give account thereof. Behold, a man, travelling into a far country, calleth his own servants, and delivereth unto them talents, to the end that they may trade therewith. After a long time, the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them, and to them that have done well He rendereth a reward of their labours, but that servant which was careless of his master's work He condemneth.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.

Quis itaque iste homo est, qui peregre proficiscitur, nisi Redemptor noster, qui in ea carne quam assumpserat, abiit in caelum? Carnis enim locus proprius terra est; quae quasi ad peregrina ducitur, dum per Redemptorem nostrum in caelo collocatur. Sed homo iste peregre proficiscens, servis suis bona sua tradidit, quia fidelibus suis spiritualia dona concessit. Et uni quidem quinque talenta, alii duo, alii vero commisit unum. Quinque etenim sunt corporis sensus, videlicet: visus, auditus, gustus, odoratus, et tactus. Quinque ergo talentis, donum quinque sensuum, id est, exteriorum scientia exprimitur. Duobus vero, intellectus et operatio designatur. Unius autem talenti nomine, intellectus tantummodo designatur.

What other, then, is that man travelling into a far country but our Redeemer, Who is gone up from us into heaven in that Flesh Which He had taken into Himself? For the earth is the home of the Flesh, Which travelleth into a far country when our Redeemer giveth It a place in heaven. But that man travelling into a far country delivered unto his servants his goods and so doth our Redeemer give spiritual gifts unto His faithful people. "And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one." There are five bodily senses that is, sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. By the five talents therefore are signified the five senses, that is, outward knowledge. By the two, wit and work. And by the figure of the one talent, understanding, which is alone.

Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to John
John 17:1-11
At that time Jesus lifted up His Eyes to heaven, and spake these words Father, the hour is come glorify thy Son. And so on.
Homily by St Austin, Bishop of Hippo.
104th Tract on John.
Our Lord, the Only-begotten and coeternal Son of the Father, was able, if need were, in and from the form of a servant, to pray in silence but He thus manifested Himself in prayer, remembering that He is our Teacher. Thus He made known unto us the prayer which He made for us since He was so great a Master that, not only His discourse to them, but His prayer to the Father for them, is an up-building to His disciples. And if it was so for them who were there to hear, truly it is so for us also for whose instruction it hath been written down.
V. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
R. Thanks be to God.
Te Deum
We praise thee, O God, * we acknowledge thee to be the Lord.
All the earth doth worship thee, * the Father everlasting.
To thee all Angels cry aloud, * the Heavens, and all the Powers therein.
To thee Cherubim and Seraphim * continually do cry.
(bow head) Holy, Holy, Holy * Lord God of Sabaoth;
Heaven and earth are full * of the Majesty of thy glory.
The glorious company of the Apostles * praise thee.
The goodly fellowship of the Prophets * praise thee.
The noble army of Martyrs * praise thee.
The holy Church throughout all the world * doth acknowledge thee;
The Father, * of an infinite Majesty.
Thine honourable, true, * and only Son;
Also the Holy Ghost, * the Comforter.
Thou art the King of Glory, * O Christ.
Thou art the everlasting * Son of the Father.

Make them to be numbered with thy Saints, * in glory everlasting.
O Lord, save thy people, * and bless thine heritage.
Govern them, * and lift them up for ever.
Day by day * we magnify thee;

And we worship thy Name * ever, world without end.
Vouchsafe, O Lord, to keep us * this day without sin.
O Lord, have mercy upon us, * have mercy upon us.

O Lord, in thee have I trusted, * let me never be confounded.
