OF Domine Jesu Christe

Igreja Matriz, São Vicente da Beira, 4 November 2020

Domine Jesu Christe, Rex gloriae, libera animas fidelium defunctorum de manu inferni, et de profundo laci: libera eas de ore leonis, ne absorbeat eas tartarus, ne cadant in obscuris: sed signifer sanctus Michael representet eas in lucem sanctam: * Quam olim Abrahae promisisti et semini eius.
V. Hostias et preces tibi Domine offerimus: tu suscipe pro animabus illis, quarum hodie memoriam agimus: fac eas, Domine, de morte transire ad vitam.

Lord Jesus Christ, King of glory, free the souls of all the faithful departed from infernal punishment and the deep pit. Free them from the mouth of the lion; do not let Tartarus swallow them, nor let them fall into darkness; but may the sign-bearer, Saint Michael, lead them into the holy light * which you promised to Abraham and his seed.
V. O Lord, we offer you sacrifices and prayers in praise; accept them on behalf of the souls whom we remember today. Make them pass over from death to life.
