To Eternity: Prayers for the Deceased for Every Day of the Week
V. O Lord, hear my prayer.
R. And let my cry come unto You.
O God, the Creator and Redeemer of all the faithful; grant unto the souls of Your servants and handmaids the remission of all their sins: that through our devout supplications they may obtain the pardon they have always desired. Who lives and reigns, world without end. Amen.
Sunday | O Lord God omnipotent, I ask You by the Precious Blood, which Your divine Son, Jesus, shed in the Garden, deliver the souls in purgatory, and especially that one which is the most forsaken of all, and bring it into Your glory, where it may praise and bless You forever. Amen. |
Monday | O Lord God omnipotent, I ask You by the Precious Blood which Your divine Son, Jesus, shed in cruel scourging, deliver the souls in purgatory, and among them all, especially that soul which is nearest to its entrance into Your glory, that it may soon praise You and bless You forever. Amen. |
Tuesday | O Lord God omnipotent, I ask You by the Precious Blood of Your divine Son, Jesus, that was shed in His bitter crowning with thorns, deliver the souls in purgatory, and among them all, particularly that soul which is in the greatest need of our prayers, in order that it may not long be delayed in praising You in Your glory and blessing You forever. Amen. |
Wednesday | O Lord God omnipotent, I ask You by the Precious Blood of Your divine Son, Jesus, that was shed in the streets of Jerusalem while He carried on His sacred shoulders the heavy burden of the Cross, deliver the souls in purgatory and especially that one which is richest in merits in Your sight, so that, having soon attained the high place in glory to which it is destined, it may praise You triumphantly and bless You forever. Amen. |
Thursday | O Lord God omnipotent, I ask You by the Precious Body and Blood of Your divine Son, Jesus, which He Himself on the night before His passion gave as food and drink to His beloved Apostles and bequeathed to His holy Church the perpetual Sacrifice and life-giving nourishment of His faithful people, deliver the souls in purgatory, but most of all, that soul which was most devoted to this mystery of infinite love, in order that it may praise You together with Your divine Son and the Holy Spirit in Your glory forever. Amen. |
Friday | O Lord God omnipotent, I ask You by the Precious Blood, which Jesus, Your divine Son, shed this day upon the tree of the Cross, especially from His sacred hands and feet, deliver the souls in purgatory, and particularly that soul for whom I am most bound to pray, in order that I may not be the cause which hinders You from admitting it quickly to the possession of Your glory where it may praise and bless You forever more. Amen. |
Saturday | O Lord God omnipotent, I ask You by the Precious Blood, which gushed forth from the sacred side of Your divine Son, Jesus, in the presence and to the great sorrow of His most holy Mother, deliver the souls in purgatory and among them all especially that soul which has been most devout to this noble Lady, that it may come quickly into Your glory, there to praise You in her and her in You through all the ages. Amen. |
Our Father. Hail Mary. Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. And may their souls and all the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
