After the Elevation

MOST amiable Jesus! Thou art now present on the altar, God and man,

really, truly, and essentially. Divine victim for our sins, have mercy

on us! Be our mediator with Thy Father; avert from us the punishment we

have deserved for our sins, deliver us from all dangers that threaten

us, and from all evil. Promote the welfare of Thy Church, and remember

in Thy mercy those who have gone before us with the sign of faith and

rest in peace. (_Remember the departed for whom you intend to pray._)

To these, O Lord, and to all that sleep in Christ, grant, we beseech

Thee, a place of refreshment, light, and peace.

Also to us sinners, Thy servants, confiding in the multitude of Thy

mercies, grant some part and fellowship with Thy saints, through whose

intercession we invoke Thy favor, and into whose company we beseech Thee

to admit us, not in consideration of our merit, but of Thy own pardon.

Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
