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. Amen.

Hymn
O God of truth, O Lord of might,
Who orderest time and change aright,
Who send’st the early morning ray,
And light’st the glow of perfect day:
Rector potens, verax Deus,
Qui témperas rerum vices,
Splendóre mane ínstruis,
Et ígnibus merídiem:
Extinguish thou each sinful fire,
And banish every ill desire;
And while thou keep’st the body whole,
Shed forth thy peace upon the soul.
Exstíngue flammas lítium,
Aufer calórem nóxium,
Confer salútem córporum,
Verámque pacem córdium.
Almighty Father, hear our cry,
Through Jesus Christ, our Lord most High,
Who, with the Holy Ghost and thee,
Doth live and reign eternally.
Amen.
Præsta, Pater piíssime,
Patríque compar Únice,
Cum Spíritu Paráclito
Regnans per omne sǽculum.
Amen.
Rector potens Mode VIII

118:140 Ignítum elóquium tuum veheménter: * et servus tuus diléxit illud.
118:141 Adolescéntulus sum ego et contémptus: * justificatiónes tuas non sum oblítus.

118:147 Prævéni in maturitáte, et clamávi: * quia in verba tua supersperávi.
118:148 Prævenérunt óculi mei ad te dilúculo: * ut meditárer elóquia tua.
