In the  name  of  the  Father,  and  of  the  Son,  and  of  the Holy Ghost. Amen.

Priest. O  Lord,  open  thou  our  lips.

Congregation. And  our  mouths  snail  declare  thy  praise.

P. O  God,  incline  unto  our  aid.

C. O  Lord,  make  haste  to  help  us.

P. Glory  be  to  the  Father,  and  to  the  Son,  and  to  the  Holy Ghost.

C. As  it  was  in  the  beginning,  is  now,  and  ever  shall  be, world without  end. Amen.

P. Let  us  adore  the  Lord  of  glory.

C. Let  us  adore  the  God  of  our  salvation.

P. The  King  of  Heaven  inviteth  us  and  graciously  calleth us into  his  sacred  presence;  to  him  we  owe  all  the  days  of  our lives; let  us  give  this  day  at  least  to  his  service.

C. Let  us  adore  the  Lord  of  glory.

P. The  angels  are  always  assembled  in  their  choirs  above, the saints  join  their  hymns;  behold  now  the  Church  also prepareth her  solemn  offices,  and  summoneth  all  her  children to bring  in  their  tribute  of  prayer  and  praise.

C. Let  us  adore  the  God  of  our  salvation.

P. Come,  let  us  rejoice  before  the  Lord;  let  us  sing  joyfully to God  our  Saviour;  let  us  make  haste  to  approach  his  presence,  and  proclaim  his  praises;  for  the  Lord  is  a  great  God, and a  great  King  above  all  gods:  in  his  hands  are  all  the  ends of the  earth.

C. Let  us  adore  the  God  that  made  us.

P. Let  us  adore  and  fall  down  before  the  Lord  who  created us; for  he  is  the  Lord  our  God,  and  we  are  his  people,  and the sheep  of  his  pasture.

C. Let  us  adore  and  fall  down  before  him.

P. To-day,  if  ye  shall  hear  his  voice,  harden  not  your  hearts, but listen  awfully  to  his  word,  and  bend  your  knees  before  his holy altars.

C. We  will  adore  the  Lord  of  glory;  we  will  worship  the God of  our  salvation.

P. Glory  be  to  the  Father,  &amp;c.

C. As  it  was  in  the  beginning,  &amp;c.

Hail, Mary. I believe.
