Martin de Porres, Renewer of Society

O God, whose Son became poor that we through his poverty might be rich: Deliver us from an inordinate love of this world, that we, inspired by the devotion of Martin de Porres, may serve you with singleness of heart and attain to the riches of the age to come; through Jesus Christ our Lord who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever. Amen

1 [a]I will praise you, O LORD, with all my heart;
I will tell of all your wonders.
2 I will be glad and rejoice in you;
I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
3 My enemies turn back;
they stumble and perish before you.
4 For you have upheld my right and my cause;
you have sat on your throne, judging righteously.
7 The LORD reigns forever;
he has established his throne for judgment.
8 He will judge the world in righteousness;
he will govern the peoples with justice.
Psalm 9 New International Version
