Grant this, O God, Who livest and reignest forever and ever. Amen. O Eternal God, Who besides the general precept of charity, hast commanded a particular respect to parents, kindred and benefactors; grant we beseech Thee, that as they were the instrument by which Thy Providence bestowed on us our birth, education, and innumerable other blessings, so our prayers may be the means to obtain for them a speedy release from their excessive sufferings, and free admittance to Thine infinite joys, through Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen.

Let us pray: O God, Whose property is ever to have mercy and to spare, we humbly beseech Thee in behalf of Thy servant/s, N.-, whom Thou hast called (this day) out of this world, that Thou wouldst not deliver (him/her/them) into the hands of the enemy, nor forget (him/her/them) forever, but bid the holy angels, lead (him/her/them) into Paradise, (his/her/their) true country, that for as much as in Thee (he/she/they) put their hope and trust, (he/she/they) may not endure the pains of hell, but may come to the possession of eternal joys, through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who with Thee liveth and reigneth in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen. Be merciful, we beseech Thee, O Lord, to the soul/s of Thy servant/s, N.-, for whom we offer to Thee the sacrifice of praise, humbly beseeching Thy Majesty that by those holy and propitiatory offerings, (he/she/they) may be found worthy to win everlasting rest, through our Lord Jesus Christ, thy Son, Who with Thee liveth and reigneth in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end. Amen. Grant, we beseech Thee, Almighty God, that the soul/s of Thy servant/s, N.-, which has/have (this day) departed out of this world, may be cleansed by this sacrifice, and delivered from sins, and may receive forgiveness and everlasting rest, through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who with Thee liveth and reigneth in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end.
