Merciful and faithful God, accept this prayer, that we who celebrate the mystery of the risen Lord may gain the joyful inheritance purchased for us by Christ, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God for ever and ever. Amen
2 I will praise the Lord as long as I live;
I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.
3 Put not your trust in princes,
in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation.
4 When his breath departs, he returns to the earth;
on that very day his plans perish.
5 Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,
whose hope is in the Lord his God,
6 who made heaven and earth,
the sea, and all that is in them,
who keeps faith forever;
7 who executes justice for the oppressed,
who gives food to the hungry.
Psalm 145 – English Standard Version
