God is the reward of all the saints. Let us joyfully call upon him:
Lord, save your people.
O God, through your Son Jesus Christ you built your Church on the foundation of the apostles,
— keep their teaching secure among your faithful people.
Lord, save your people.
You made the martyrs powerful witnesses even to the point of giving up their lives,
— help all Christians to give faithful witness to your Son.
Lord, save your people.
You gave holy virgins the gift of imitating the virginity of Christ,
— may those consecrated to virginity be steadfast witnesses to the coming of your kingdom.
Lord, save your people.
Your saints now see you face to face,
— keep alive in our hearts the hope of coming at last into your presence.
Lord, save your people.
Bring all who have died into the company of heaven with Mary, Joseph and all your saints,
— and give us also a place in the unending fellowship of your Kingdom.
Lord, save your people.
