R. And my mouth shall declare thy praise.

V. O God, come to my assistance.

R. O Lord, make haste to help me.

V. Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

R. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, Amen.

 

The decade below is recited three times, once for each member of the Trinity. 

ALL: Holy God! Holy Strong One! Holy Immortal One, have mercy upon us. 

V. Our Father… 

The following part of the decade is repeated nine times.

V. To thee, O Blessed Trinity, be praise, and honor, and thanksgiving, for ever and ever!

R. Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of hosts. Heaven and earth are filled with thy glory. 

Then is said:

V. Glory be to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

End of decade. 

Antiphon:

God the Father unbegotten, only-begotten Son, and Holy Spirit, the comforter; Holy and undivided Trinity, with all our hearts we acknowledge thee: Glory to thee forever. 

V. Let us bless the Father, and the Son with the Holy Spirit,

R. Be praised and elated above all things forever. 

V. Let us pray, Almighty, ever-living God, who has permitted us thy servants, in our profession of the true faith, to acknowledge the glory of the eternal Trinity, and in the power of that majesty to adore the unity, grant, that by steadfastness in this same faith, we may be ever guarded against all adversity, through Christ our Lord. 

ALL: Amen. Set us free, save us, vivify us, O Blessed Trinity!
