Oh, when in death
We yield our breath,
O come and take us to the sky;
And even now,
Great father, show
We walk beneath thy watchful eye.
We yield our breath,
O come and take us to the sky;
And even now,
Great father, show
We walk beneath thy watchful eye.
Holy father, cast thy mind
On the work thy hands designed;
In the Judge's presence stand
For thy poor and lowly band.
O Wonderful Hope, which thou gavest to those who wept for thee, at the hour of thy death, promising, after thy departure, to be helpful to thy brethren!
℣. Pray for us, O blessed father Dominic,
℟. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Let us pray.
Grant, we beseech, Almighty God, that we, who are pressed down by the weight of our sins, may be raised up by the prayers of the blessed Dominic, our father. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

O God, Lover of souls, we humbly beseech Thee,
trusting in Thy great mercy, that by the intercession of blessed Dominic, Thy
confessor and our father, Thou wouldst deign to have mercy on the soul of Thy
servant, lest the enemy prevail against it at the hour of death, but mayest
Thou grant it a passage to life everlasting. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Amen.
✠
May the blessing of God Almighty, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, through the
intercession of St. Dominic, come down upon thee and remain with thee forever.
Amen.
