Ætérne rex altíssime,
redémptor et fidélium,
quo mors solúta déperit,
datur triúmphus grátiæ,
Scandis tribúnal déxteræ
Patris tibíque cǽlitus
fertur potéstas ómnium,
quæ non erat humánitus,
Ut trina rerum máchina
cæléstium, terréstrium
et inferórum cóndita,
flectat genu iam súbdita.
Tremunt vidéntes ángeli
versam vicem mortálium;
culpat caro, purgat caro,
regnat caro Verbum Dei.
Tu, Christe, nostrum gáudium,
manens perénne prǽmium,
mundi regis qui fábricam,
mundána vincens gáudia.
Hinc te precántes quǽsumus,
ignósce culpis ómnibus
et corda sursum súbleva
ad te supérna grátia,
Ut, cum rubénte cœ́peris
clarére nube iúdicis,
pœnas repéllas débitas,
reddas corónas pérditas.
Iesu, tibi sit glória,
qui scandis ad cæléstia,
cum Patre et almo Spíritu,
in sempitérna sǽcula. Amen.

Be thou my vision, O Lord of my heart,
Be all else but naught to me, save that thou art;
Be thou my best thought in the day and the night,
Both waking and sleeping, thy presence my light.
Be thou my wisdom, be thou my true word,
Be thou ever with me, and I with thee Lord;
Be thou my great Father, and I thy true son;
Be thou in me dwelling, and I with thee one.
Be thou my breastplate, my sword for the fight;
Be thou my whole armour, be thou my true might;
Be thou my soul’s shelter, be thou my strong tower:
O raise thou me heavenward, great Power of my power.
Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise:
Be thou mine inheritance now and always;
Be thou and thou only the first in my heart;
O Sovereign of Heaven, my treasure thou art.
High King of Heaven, thou Heaven’s bright sun,
O grant me its joys after victory is won!
Great heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my vision, O Ruler of all.

| Psalm 144 (145)Alleluia. All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Alleluia.
The Lord is faithful in all his words,
the Lord is holy in all his deeds.
The Lord supports all who are falling,
the Lord lifts up all who are oppressed.
All look to you for help,
and you give them their food in due season.
In your goodness you open your hand,
and give every creature its fill.
The Lord is just in all his ways,
the Lord is kind in all that he does.
The Lord is near to those who call on him,
to all those who call on him in truth.
For those that honour him,
he does what they ask,
he hears all their prayers,
and he keeps them safe.
The Lord keeps safe all who love him,
but he dooms all the wicked to destruction.
My mouth shall tell the praises of the Lord.
Let all flesh bless his holy name,
for ever and ever.

is now, and ever shall be,

Mandatum fidei et caritatis18Filíoli, non diligámus verbo nec lingua sed in ópere et veritáte. 19In hoc cognoscémus quóniam ex veritáte sumus, et in conspéctu eius placábimus corda nostra, 20quóniam si reprehénderit nos cor, maior est Deus corde nostro et cognóscit ómnia. 21Caríssimi, si cor nostrum non reprehénderit nos, fidúciam habémus ad Deum 22et, quodcúmque petiérimus, accípimus ab eo, quóniam mandáta eius custodímus et ea, quæ sunt plácita coram eo, fácimus.
23Et hoc est mandátum eius, ut credámus nómini Fílii eius Iesu Christi et diligámus altérutrum, sicut dedit mandátum nobis. 24Et, qui servat mandáta eius, in ipso manet, et ipse in eo; et in hoc cognóscimus quóniam manet in nobis, ex Spíritu, quem nobis dedit.

The commandment of faith and loveMy children,
our love is not to be just words or mere talk,
but something real and active;
only by this can we be certain
that we are children of the truth
and be able to quieten our conscience in his presence,
whatever accusations it may raise against us,
because God is greater than our conscience and he knows everything.
My dear people,
if we cannot be condemned by our own conscience,
we need not be afraid in God’s presence,
and whatever we ask him,
we shall receive,
because we keep his commandments
and live the kind of life that he wants.
His commandments are these:
that we believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ
and that we love one another
as he told us to.
Whoever keeps his commandments
lives in God and God lives in him.
We know that he lives in us
by the Spirit that he has given us.
| ||||
℟. Qui servat mandáta Dei, in ipso manet, et ipse in eo:* Et in hoc cognóscimus quóniam manet in nobis, ex Spíritu, quem dedit nobis, allelúia.
℣. Deus creávit sapiéntiam in spíritu sancto, et effúdit illam super omnem carnem.* Et in hoc.
|
℟. Whoever keeps his commandments lives in God and God lives in him;* and we know that he lives in us by the Spirit that he has given us, alleluia.
℣. God created Wisdom in the Holy Spirit, and poured her out on all mankind;* and we know that he lives in us by the Spirit that he has given us, alleluia.

Gloriam, quam dedisti mihi, dedi eisSi diléctio plane tandem metum eíciat, mutatúsque metus diléctio fiat; tum vero únitas esse reperiétur id, quod salútem conséquitur, ómnibus inter se unítis in conglutinatióne cum uno ac solo bono, per illam quæ in colúmba est perfectiónem.
Nam huiúsmodi quiddam ex verbis sequéntibus intellégimus, cum ait: Una est colúmba mea, perfécta mea. Unica est matri suæ, elécta illi quæ péperit eam.
Atque hoc in Evangélio per vocem Dómini nobis illústrius declarátur. Etenim ille, benedicéndo, vim omnem discípulis suis cónferens, cum ália bona verbis illis, quibus ad Patrem útitur, tríbuit dignis; tum étiam addit hoc, quod bonórum caput ac summa est, non ámplius eos, in diversitáte quadam electiónum, multiplíciter divísos fore in faciéndo de bono iudício, sed omnes unum futúros, uni illi ac soli bono agglutinátos; ita ut, per unitátem Sancti Spíritus (quemádmodum Apóstolus ait) pacis constrícti nexu, corpus unum fiant omnes et unus spíritus, per spem unam, in quam vocáti sint.
Enimvéro réctius fecérimus, si de verbo ad verbum ipsas Evangélii divínas sane voces apposuérimus. Ut omnes, inquit, sint unum, quemádmodum tu, mi Pater, in me es, et ego in te; ut et ipsi unum sint in nobis.
Huius autem unitátis nexus est glória. Spíritum autem Sanctum appellári glóriam, nemo prudentiórum negábit, si ipsa Dómini verba intuébitur, cum ait: Glóriam, quam dedísti mihi, dedi eis. Revéra enim eándem discípulis glóriam dedit, cum ad eos díceret: Accípite Spíritum Sanctum.
Atque hanc glóriam, quam tamen semper hábuit, prius étiam quam mundus hic exsísteret, accépit id témporis, cum natúram humánam indúeret; qua quidem per Spíritum Sanctum glorificáta, quidquid huic cognátum est glóriæ, Spíritus fit párticeps, facto ab Apóstolis inítio.
Hanc ob causam ait: Glóriam, quam dedísti mihi, dedi eis; ut sint unum, quemádmodum nos unum sumus; ego in eis et tu in me, ut sint consummáti in unum. Quámobrem is, qui de púero in virum perféctum augescéndo evásit, ad mensúram ætátis illíus pervénit, quam mente intellégimus; dénique capax glóriæ Spíritus Sancti per statum a vítiis ómnibus aliénum, perque puritátem; hic ígitur est perfécta illa colúmba, ad quam sponsus réspicit, cum ait: Una est colúmba mea, perfécta mea.

The glory you gave to me, I have given to themWhen love has entirely cast out fear, and fear has been transformed into love, then the unity brought us by our saviour will be fully realised, for all men will be united with one another through their union with the one supreme Good. They will possess the perfection ascribed to the dove, according to our interpretation of the text: One alone is my dove, my perfect one. She is the only child of her mother, her chosen one.
Our Lord’s words in the gospel bring out the meaning of this text more clearly. After having conferred all power on his disciples by his blessing, he obtained many other gifts for them by his prayer to the Father. Among these was included the greatest gift of all, which was that they were no longer to be divided in their judgement of what was right and good, for they were all to be united to the one supreme Good. As the Apostle says, they were to be bound together with the bonds of peace in the unity that comes from the Holy Spirit. They were to be made one body and one spirit by the one hope to which they were all called. We shall do better, however, to quote the sacred words of the gospel itself. I pray, the Lord says, that they all may be one; that as you, Father, are in me and I am in you, so they also may be one in us.
Now the bond that creates this unity is glory. That the Holy Spirit is called glory no one can deny if he thinks carefully about the Lord’s words: The glory you gave to me, I have given to them. In fact, he gave this glory to his disciples when he said to them: Receive the Holy Spirit. Although he had always possessed it, even before the world existed, he himself received this glory when he put on human nature. Then, when his human nature had been glorified by the Spirit, the glory of the Spirit was passed on to all his kin, beginning with his disciples. This is why he said: The glory you gave to me, I have given to them, so that they may be one as we are one. With me in them and you in me, I want them to be perfectly one.
Whoever has grown from infancy to manhood and attained to spiritual maturity possesses the mastery over his passions and the purity that makes it possible for him to receive the glory of the Spirit. He is that perfect dove upon whom the eyes of the bridegroom rest when he says: One alone is my dove, my perfect one.

℟. Iam non dicam vos servos, sed amícos meos; quia ómnia cognovístis, quæ operátus sum in médio vestri.* Accípite Spíritum Sanctum in vobis Paráclitum; ille est quem Pater mittet vobis, allelúia.
℣. Vos amíci mei estis, si fecéritis quæ ego præcípio vobis.* Accípite.

God, we praise you; Lord, we proclaim you!
You, the Father, the eternal –
all the earth venerates you.
All the angels, all the heavens, every power –
The cherubim, the seraphim –
unceasingly, they cry:
“Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Hosts:
heaven and earth are full of the majesty of your glory!”
The glorious choir of Apostles –
The noble ranks of prophets –
The shining army of martyrs –
all praise you.
Throughout the world your holy Church proclaims you.
– Father of immeasurable majesty,
– True Son, only-begotten, worthy of worship,
– Holy Spirit, our Advocate.
You, Christ:
– You are the king of glory.
– You are the Father’s eternal Son.
– You, to free mankind, did not disdain a Virgin’s womb.
– You defeated the sharp spear of Death, and opened the kingdom of heaven to those who believe in you.
– You sit at God’s right hand, in the glory of the Father.
– You will come, so we believe, as our Judge.
And so we ask of you: give help to your servants, whom you set free at the price of your precious blood.
Number them among your chosen ones in eternal glory.
The final part of the hymn may be omitted:
Bring your people to safety, Lord, and bless those who are your inheritance.
Rule them and lift them high for ever.
Day by day we bless you, Lord: we praise you for ever and for ever.
Of your goodness, Lord, keep us without sin for today.
Have mercy on us, Lord, have mercy on us.
Let your pity, Lord, be upon us, as much as we trust in you.
In you, Lord, I trust: let me never be put to shame.
