Today we lovingly remember the death of our Lord Jesus Christ, from which was born new life for the whole world. Let us turn to God the Father, and say:
By the merits of your Son’s death, hear us, Lord.
Give unity to your Church.
By the merits of your Son’s death, hear us, Lord.
Protect our Pope.
By the merits of your Son’s death, hear us, Lord.
Sanctify your people, both clergy and faithful, by your Spirit.
By the merits of your Son’s death, hear us, Lord.
Increase faith and understanding in those under instruction.
By the merits of your Son’s death, hear us, Lord.
Gather all Christians in unity.
By the merits of your Son’s death, hear us, Lord.
Lead the Jewish people to the fullness of redemption.
By the merits of your Son’s death, hear us, Lord.
Enlighten with your glory those who do not yet believe in Christ.
By the merits of your Son’s death, hear us, Lord.
Show the marks of your love in creation to those who deny them.
By the merits of your Son’s death, hear us, Lord.
Guide the minds and hearts of those who govern us.
By the merits of your Son’s death, hear us, Lord.
Console all who are troubled.
By the merits of your Son’s death, hear us, Lord.
Have pity on those who have died.
By the merits of your Son’s death, hear us, Lord.
