Mass of Christian Burial for Archbishop Emeritus Philip Wilson DD JCL - Flipbook - Page 23
Reader:
All:
Comfort us in our sorrow at the death of
Philip; let our faith be our consolation, and
eternal life our hope.
We pray to the Lord:
Lord, have mercy.
The Lord’s Prayer
Archbishop O’Regan invites those present to pray the Lord’s Prayer.
Archbishop:
With longing for the coming of God’s
kingdom, let us pray:
All: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.
Concluding Prayer
Archbishop:
Lord God,
whose days are without end
and whose mercies beyond counting,
keep us mindful that life is short and the
hour of death unknown.
Let your Spirit guide our days on earth
in the ways of holiness and justice,
that we may serve you in union with the
whole Church, sure in faith, strong in hope,
perfected in love.
And when our earthly journey is ended,
lead us rejoicing into your kingdom,
where you live for ever and ever.
All:
Amen
