Requiem

Introit

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord
And let perpetual light shine upon them
A hymn, O God, becometh Thee in Zion
And a vow shall be paid to Thee in Jerusalem
Hear my prayer
To Thee all flesh shall come

Kyrie

Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy

Offertory

Lord Jesus Christ, King of glory
Deliver the souls of all the faithful departed
From the pains of hell
And from the deep pit
Deliver them from the lion's mouth
Lest hell swallow them up
Lest they fall into darkness
We offer Thee sacrifices and prayers
O Lord, we offer Thee praise
Receive them for those souls
Whom we commemorate today
Grant them, O Lord
To pass from death to that life
Which Thou once promised to Abraham
And to his seed

Holy

Holy, holy, holy
Lord God of Hosts
Heaven and earth are full
Of Thy glory
Hosanna in the highest

Merciful Jesus

Merciful Lord Jesus
Grant them rest
Eternal rest

Lamb of God

Lamb of God
Who takest away the sins of the world
Grant them rest
Eternal rest

Eternal Light

May eternal light shine upon them, O Lord
With Thy saints forever
For Thou art merciful
Grant them eternal rest, O Lord
And let perpetual light shine upon them

Deliver me

Deliver me, O Lord
From eternal death
On that fearful day
When the heavens and earth shall be moved
When Thou shalt come to judge
The world by fire
I am made to tremble, and I fear
The judgment when it shall come
And the coming wrath
That day, the day of wrath
Of calamity and misery
A great and exceedingly bitter day
Grant them eternal rest, O Lord
And let perpetual light shine upon them

To paradise

May the angels lead you into paradise
At your coming
May the martyrs receive you
And lead you
Into the holy city Jerusalem
May the chorus of angels receive you
And with Lazarus, once poor
May you have eternal rest
