O God, whose blessed Son came into the world that He might destroy the worlds of the devil and make us children of God and heirs of eternal life; Grant that, having this hope, I may purify myself as He is pure; that, when He comes again with power and great glory, I may be made like Him in His eternal and glorious kingdom; where He live and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
Almighty and everlasting God, You are always more ready to hear than we to pray, and to give more than we either desire or deserve; Pour upon Your church, the abundance of Your mercy, forgiving us those things of which our conscience is afraid, and giving us those good things for which we are not worthy to ask, except through the merits and mediation of Jesus Christ our Savior; Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God forever, and ever. Amen.
O God, You declare your almighty power chiefly in showing mercy and pity: Grant me the fullness of your grace, that I, running to obtain Your promises, may become a partaker of your heavenly treasure; through Jesus Christ our Lord, Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, on God, forever and ever. Amen.
