To Thy Will, and Perform Them with All His Strength

O God, from Whom are all holy desires, righteous coun- sels, and just works, give to Thy servants that peace which the world can not give; that, our hearts being disposed to keep Thy commandments, and the fear of enemies taken nway, the times, by Thy protection, may be peaceable. Inflame, O Lord, our reins and hearts with the fire of Thy holy Spirit; to the end that we may serve Thee with a chaste body, and please Thee with a clean heart.

O God, the Creator and Redeemer of all the faithful, give to the souls of Thy servants departed the remission of all their sins, that by pious supplications they may obtain the pardon they have always desired. Direct, we beseech Thee, O Lord, our actions by Thy holy inspirations, and carry them on by Thy gracious assistance ; that every prayer and work of ours may always begin from Thee, and by Thee be happily ended..

O almighty and eternal God, Who hast dominion over the living and the dead, and art merciful to all of whom Thou foreknowest that they will be Thine by faith and good works: we humbly beseech Thee that they for whom we have purposed to offer our prayers, whether this present world still detains them in the flesh or the next world hath al- ready received them divested of their bodies, may, by the clemency of Thine own goodness and the intercession of Thy saints, obtain pardon and full remission of all their sins. Through Our Lord Jesus Christ, Who liveth and Digitized by Litany of the Blessed Sacrament 475 reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, one God, world without end. f R. Amen
