TE DEUM

Almighty, eternal God, only hope of the world, Who, by the mouth of Thy prophets hast shown forth the mysteries of the present time, be pleased to give increase to the desires of Thy people, for in none of the faithful do any virtues bear fruit but by Thy inspiration. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end. S. Amen.

TE DEUM

We praise thee, O God, we acknowledge thee to be the Lord.
All the earth doth worship thee, the Father everlasting.
To thee all Angels cry aloud, the Heavens, and all the Powers therein.
To thee Cherubim and Seraphim continually do cry.

Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Sabaoth;
Heaven and earth are full of the Majesty of thy glory.
The glorious company of the Apostles praises thee.
The admirable company of the Prophets praises thee.
The white robed army of Martyrs praises thee.
The holy Church throughout all the world doth acknowledge thee;
The Father, of an infinite Majesty.
Thine adorable, true, and only Son;
Also the Holy Spirit, the Comforter.
Thou art the King of Glory, O Christ.
Thou art the everlasting Son of the Father.

Thou, having taken upon thee to deliver man, didst not disdain the Virgin's womb.
When thou hadst overcome the sting of death, thou didst open the Kingdom of Heaven to all believers.
Thou sittest at the right hand of God, in the glory of the Father.
We believe that thou shalt come to be our Judge.

We therefore pray thee, help thy servants, whom thou hast redeemed with thy precious Blood.

Make them to be numbered with thy Saints, in glory everlasting.
O Lord, save thy people, and bless thine heritage.
Govern them, and lift them up for ever.
Day by day we bless thee.

And we praise thy name for ever, yea for ever and ever.
Vouchsafe, O Lord, to keep us this day without sin.
O Lord, have mercy upon us, have mercy upon us.
O Lord, let thy mercy be upon us,as we have hoped in thee.
O Lord, in thee have I trusted, let me not be confounded for ever.

V. Blessed art thou, O Lord the God of our fathers.

R. And worthy to be praised and glorious for ever.

V. Let us bless the Father and the Son with the Holy Spirit.

R. Let us praise and magnify him for ever.

V. Blessed art thou, O Lord, in the firmament of heaven.

R. And worthy to be praised and glorious and exalted for ever.

V. O Lord, hear my prayer.

R. And let my cry come unto thee.

V. The Lord be with you.

R. And with thy spirit.

Let us pray.

O GOD, whose mercies are numberless and the treasure of whose goodness has no end, we give thanks to thy most gracious Majesty for the gifts thou hast bestowed, beseeching thy mercy that, as thou grantest the petitions of them that ask, so, not forsaking them, thou wilt prepare them for rewards to come, through Christ Jesus our only Lord and Saviour Who lives and reigns with Thee in the Unity and Power and Bond of Love of the Holy Spirit our Paraclete unto the endless ages of ages to come. R. Amen.

ABIDE WITH US O LORD
