PSALM LXIX
INCLINE unto my aid, O God: O Lord, make haste to help me.Let them be confounded and ashamed: that seek after my soul.Let them be turned backward and blush for shame: that desire evils unto me.Let them be presently turned away blushing for shame, that say to me: Tis well, 'tis well.Let all that seek Thee rejoice and be glad in Thee: and let such as love Thy salvation say always, The Lord be magnified.But I am needy and poor: O God, help Thou me.Thou art my helper and my deliverer: O Lord, make no delay.Glory be to the Father, etc.V. Save Thy servants:R. Trusting in Thee, O my God.V. Be unto us, O God, a tower of strength:R. From the face of the enemy.V. Let not the enemy prevail against us:R. Nor the son of iniquity have power to hurt us.V. O Lord, deal not with us according to our sins:R. Neither reward us according to our iniquities.V. Let us pray for our chief bishop, N.R. The Lord preserve him, and give him life, and make him blessed upon earth, and deliver him not up to the will of his enemies.V. Let us pray for our benefactors:R. Vouchsafe, O Lord, for Thy name's sake, to reward with eternal life all those who have done us good.V. Let us pray for the faithful departed:R.

Let us pray
OGOD, whose property it is always to have mercy and to spare, receive our petitions, that we, and all Thy servants who are bound by the chain of sin, may, in the compassion of Thy goodness, mercifully be absolved.
Hear, we beseech Thee, O Lord, the prayer of Thy suppliants, and pardon the sins of them that confess to Thee, that of Thy bounty Thou mayest grant us pardon and peace.
Out of Thy clemency, O Lord, show Thy unspeakable mercy to us, that so Thou mayest both acquit us of our sins and deliver us from the punishment we deserve for them.
O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people who make supplication to Thee, and turn away the scourges of Thy anger, which we deserve for our sins.
O almighty and eternal God, have mercy on Thy servant N., our chief bishop, and direct him, according to Thy clemency, in the way of everlasting salvation, that, by Thy grace, he may desire the things that are agreeable to Thy will, and perform them with all his strength.
O God, from whom all holy desires, righteous counsels, and just works do come, give to Thy servants that peace which the world can not give; that, our hearts being disposed to keep Thy commandments, and the fear of enemies being taken away, the times, by Thy protection, may be peaceable.
Inflame, O Lord, our reins and hearts with the fire of the Holy Spirit; to the end that we may serve Thee with a chaste body, and please Thee with a clean heart.
O God, the Creator and Redeemer of all the faithful, give to the souls of Thy servants departed the remission of all their sins, that by pious supplications they may obtain the pardon they have always desired.
Direct, we beseech Thee, O Lord, our actions by Thy holy inspirations, and carry them on by Thy gracious assistance; that every prayer and work of ours may always begin from Thee, and by Thee be happily ended.
Almighty and eternal God, who hast dominion over the living and the dead, and art merciful to all whom Thou foreknowest shall be Thine by faith and good works; we humbly beseech Thee that they for whom we have purposed to offer our prayers, whether this present world still detains them in the flesh, or the next world has already received them divested of their bodies, may, by the clemency of Thine own goodness and the intercession of Thy saints, obtain pardon and full remission of all their sins. Through Our Lord Jesus Christ, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, world without end. Amen.
V. O Lord, hear my prayer.R. And let my cry come unto Thee.V. May the almighty and merciful Lord graciously hear us.R. Amen.V. May the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace.R. Amen.
