From the gates of hell,
Deliver their souls, O Lord,
O Lord, hear our prayer.
And let our cry come unto Thee.
Let us pray:
O God, the Creator and Redeemer of all the
faithful, grant unto the souls of Thy servants
departed the remission of their sins; that by pious
supplications, they may obtain that pardon which
they have always desired. Grant this, O God, Who
livest and reignest forever and ever. Amen.
O Eternal God, Who besides the general precept of
charity, hast commanded a particular respect to
parents, kindred and benefactors; grant we beseech
Thee, that as they were the instrument by which
Thy Providence bestowed on us our birth,
education, and innumerable other blessings, so our
prayers may be the means to obtain for them a
speedy release from their excessive sufferings, and
free admittance to Thine infinite joys, through
Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
Let us pray:
O God, Whose property is ever to have mercy and
to spare, we humbly beseech Thee in behalf of Thy
servant/s, N.-, whom Thou hast called (this day)
out of this world, that Thou wouldst not deliver
(him/her/them) into the hands of the enemy, nor
forget (him/her/them) forever, but bid the holy
angels, lead (him/her/them) into Paradise,
(his/her/their) true country, that for as much as in
Thee (he/she/they) put their hope and trust,
(he/she/they) may not endure the pains of hell, but
may come to the possession of eternal joys, through
our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who with Thee
liveth and reigneth in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, world without end. Amen.
Be merciful, we beseech Thee, O Lord, to the
soul/s of Thy servant/s, N.-, for whom we offer to
Thee the sacrifice of praise, humbly beseeching Thy
Majesty that by those holy and propitiatory
offerings, (he/she/they) may be found worthy to
win everlasting rest, through our Lord Jesus Christ,
thy Son, Who with Thee liveth and reigneth in the
unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end.
Amen.
Grant, we beseech Thee, Almighty God, that the
soul/s of Thy servant/s, N.-, which has/have (this
day) departed out of this world, may be cleansed by
this sacrifice, and delivered from sins, and may
receive forgiveness and everlasting rest, through
our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who with Thee
liveth and reigneth in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, world without end. Amen.
Absolve, O Lord, the soul/s of Thy servant/s, from
every bond of sin, so that by Thy aid (he/she/they)
may deserve to escape the judgment of wrath, and
come to the enjoyment of beatitude in eternal
light.
Eternal rest grant unto (him/her/them), O Lord.
And let Your perpetual light shine upon (him/her/
them).
From the gates of hell,
Deliver (his/her/their) soul/s, O Lord.
May (he/she/they) rest in peace.
Amen.
O Lord, hear our prayer.
And let our cry come unto Thee.
The Lord be with you.
And with Thy Soirit.
Let us pray:
O God, the Creator and Redeemer of all the
faithful, grant unto the soul/s of Thy servant/s, N.-,
the remission of all (his/her/their) sins, that
through pious supplications (he/she/they) may
obtain the pardon (he/she/they) has/have always
desired Who livest and reignest world without end.
Amen.
Eternal rest grant unto (him/her/them), O Lord.
And let Your perpetual light shine upon
(him/her/them).
May (he/she/them) rest in peace.
Amen.
