Most high, omnipotent, good Lord, grant your people grace to renounce gladly the vanities of this world; that, following the way of blessed Francis, we may for love of you delight in your whole creation with perfectness of joy; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
May the power of your love, Lord Christ, fiery and sweet as honey, so absorb our hearts as to withdraw them from all that is under heaven. Grant that we may be ready to die for love of your love, as you died for love of our love. Amen
Lord Jesus Christ, who when the world was growing cold, to the inflaming of our hearts by the fire of your love raised up Blessèd Francis bearing in his body the marks of your passion: mercifully grant to us, your people, true penitence and grace to bear the Cross for love of you; who live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
✠ May our holy Father Francis pray to the Lord that we may have the grace to observe the Gospel with greater devotion. Amen.
✠ And may the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace and rise in glory. Amen.
