this month at the refuge we are focusing on the mystery & beauty of the trinity. God: three. one. here’s a prayer to meditate on this week:
Lord, have mercy.
Christ, have mercy.
Lord, have mercy.
Blessed Trinity, hear us
Adorable Unity, graciously hear us.
God the Father of Heaven,
God the Son, Redeemer of the world,
God the Holy Ghost,
Holy Trinity, One God, Have mercy on us.
Father from Whom are all things,
Son through Whom are all things,
Holy Ghost in Whom are all things,
Holy and undivided Trinity, Have mercy on us.
Father everlasting,
Only-begotten Son of the Father,
Spirit Who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
Co-eternal Majesty of Three Divine Persons, Have mercy on us.
Father, the Creator,
Son, the Redeemer
Holy Ghost, the Comforter,
Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of hosts, Have mercy on us.
Who is, Who was, and Who is to come,
God Most High, Who inhabits eternity,
To Whom alone are due all honor and glory,
Who alone does great wonders,
Power infinite,
Wisdom incomprehensible,
Love unspeakable, Have mercy on us.
Delliver us, O Holy Trinity
From all evil,
From all sin,
From all pride,
From all love of riches,
From all uncleanness,
From all sloth,
From all inordinate affection,
From all envy and malice,
From all anger and impatience,
From every thought, word, and deed contrary to Your holy law,
From Your everlasting malediction,
Through Your plenteous loving kindness,
Through the exceeding treasure of Your goodness and love,
Through the depths of Your wisdom and knowledge,
Through all Your unspeakable perfections, deliver us O Holy Trinity
We sinners, Beseech You, hear us.
That we may ever serve You alone,
That we may worship You in spirit and in truth,
That we may love You with all our heart, with all our soul, & with all our strength,
That, for Your sake, we may love our neighbor as ourselves,
That we may faithfully keep Your holy commandments,
That we may never defile our bodies and souls with sin,
That we may go from grace to grace, and virtue to virtue,
That we may finally enjoy the sight of You in glory,
That You would vouchsafe to hear us,
O Blessed Trinity,
We beseech You, deliver us. save us. have mercy on us.
Blessed are You O Lord, in the firmament of heaven
And worthy to be praised, and glorious, and highly exalted forever!
