Salvator Mundi

Ant. O Saviour of the world, who by thy Cross and precious Blood hast redeemed us;/ save us and help us we humbly beseech thee, O Lord.
Thou didst save thy disciples when ready to perish: / hear us and save us we humbly beseech thee.
Let the pitifulness of they great mercy / loose us from our sins we humbly beseech thee.
Draw near according to thy promise from the throne of thy glory: / look down and hear our crying we humbly beseech the.
Come again and dwell with us, O Lord Christ Jesus: / abide with us for ever we humbly beseech thee.
And when thou shalt appear with power and great glory: / may we be made like unto thee, in thy glorious Kingdom.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son,/ and to the Holy Ghost;
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, / world without end. Amen.

Second Lesson: Matthew 26:31-56

Collects of the Day.



ALMIGHTY and everlasting God, who hatest nothing that thou hast made, and dost forgive the sins of all them that are penitent: Create and make in us new and contrite hearts, that we worthily lamenting our sins, and acknowledging our wretchedness, may obtain of thee, the God of all mercy, perfect remission and forgiveness; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

O GOD, who by thy Holy Spirit hast given unto one man a word of wisdom, and to another a word of knowledge, and to another the gift of tongues: We praise thy Name for the gifts of grace manifested in thy servant Saint Thomas Aquinas, and we pray that thy Church may never be destitute of the same; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.


O LORD, who for our sake didst fast forty days and forty nights: Give us grace to use such abstinence, that, our flesh being subdued to the Spirit, we may ever obey thy godly motions in righteousness and true holiness, to thy honour and glory; who livest and reignest with the Father and the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen.
