Let us humbly pray to God who sent his Son as the Savior and exemplar of his people:
May your people praise you, Lord.
Let us give thanks to God who chose us as the firstfruits of salvation,
— and who called us to share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
May your people praise you, Lord.
May those who confess your holy name be united in your truth,
— and fervent in your love.
May your people praise you, Lord.
Creator of all things, your Son desired to work among men with his own hands,
— be mindful of all who earn their living by the sweat of their brow.
May your people praise you, Lord.
Be mindful of those who devote themselves to the service of their brothers,
— do not let them be deterred from their goals by discouraging results or lack of support.
May your people praise you, Lord.
Be merciful to the faithful departed,
— keep them from the power of the Evil One.
May your people praise you, Lord.
