I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth.
And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended into hell;
the third day He rose again from the dead.
He ascended into heaven

From there He will come to judge the

4. Prayer for Mercy for the Whole World
O greatly Merciful God,
infinite Goodness,
today all mankind calls out
from the abyss of its misery to Your mercy.
To Your compassion, O God,
and it is with its mighty voice of misery
that it cries out.
Gracious God,
do not reject the prayer of this earth’s exiles.
O Lord, Goodness beyond our understanding,
who are acquainted with our misery through and through,
and know that by our own power
we cannot ascend to You,
we implore You:
anticipate us with Your grace
and keep on increasing Your mercy in us,
that we may faithfully do Your holy will
all through our life and at death’s hour.
Let the omnipotence of Your mercy
shield us from the darts of our salvation’s enemies,
that we may with confidence,
as Your children, await Your Son’s final coming.
