Give to us, your servants, that peace which the world cannot give, that our

merits of Jesus Christ our Savior, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy
Spirit, God forever.

Lord’s Prayer
Lord, remember us in your kingdom, and teach us to pray:
Our
Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give
us this day our daily bread;
and
forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those
who trespass against us;
and
lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For
thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory,
forever and ever. Amen.
Let us bless the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
