Jesus, Crown of all thy saints,
By their virtues and merits,
By their patience and humility,
By their penance and mortification,
By their fasts and watchings,
By their weariness and toils,
By their poverty and want,
By their pilgrimages and prayers,
By their devotion and their love,
By their sighs and their longings,
By their charity and alms,
By their compassion and mercy,
By their persecutions and martyrdom,
Have mercy on us.
By their bonds and imprisonment,
By their pains and torments,
By their wounds and stripes,
By their cruel death,
By the shedding of their blood,
By all the adversities and the miseries which they endured for thy glory,
By the love wherewith thou hast loved them from eternity,
By the love wherewith thou didst draw them to thyself,
By the love wherewith thou didst dwell in their hearts,
By the love wherein thou didst confer on them such manifold graces,
By the love wherewith thou didst receive them into heaven,
By the love wherewith thou art ever bestowing on them their everlasting reward,
By the mutual love which unites them to thee,
Jesus Christ,
Have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world,

Spare us, O Lord.
Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world,
who takest away the sins of the world,
Graciously hear us, O Lord.

who takest away the sins of the world,
Have mercy on us.

℣. Pray for us, all ye saints of God.
℟. That by your merits we may attain to everlasting life.
Let us pray.
O LORD Jesus Christ, Crown of thy saints, do thou have mercy on thy people, who are called by thy Name, and by the merits of all thy saints be merciful to our iniquities. Remember all the faithfulness and the love which they kept always to thee even unto death. Behold, their innocent blood so ruthlessly shed crieth unto thee from the ground, beseeching thy mercy. Be thou appeased, O our Lord, by their merits which we now offer thee, and grant us to enjoy their society in heaven, on whose merits and patronage we rely on earth. Who livest, &c. Amen.
