Father, all-powerful and ever-living God,
we do well always and everywhere
to give You thanks.

You give the Church this feast in honour of Saint N...;
You inspire us by his holy life,
instruct us by his preaching,
and give us Your protection in answer to his prayers.

We join the angels and the saints as they sing their unending hymn of praise:

Holy, holy, holy Lord,
God of power and might,
heaven and earth are full of your glory.
Hosanna in the highest.
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
Hosanna in the highest.
