Thought
The soul that we release from Purgatory is under a particular obligation to us, both because of the singular benefit it receives from entering all the sooner into the glory, and also because of the terrible sufferings from which it is delivered. Thus it is bound to obtain for its benefactors' perpetual graces and blessings.
The Lords Prayer:
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come;
thy will be done;
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation;
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
the power and the glory,
forever and ever.
Amen.
Hail Mary (3 times)
Hail Mary, full of grace.
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
Gloria
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was, in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
De Profundis (Psalm 130)
V: Out of the depths, I have cried to Thee, O Lord, Lord, hear my voice.
R: Let Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
V: If Thou, O Lord, shalt mark my iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand it?
R: For with Thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of Thy law I have waited for Thee, O Lord
V: My soul hath relied on His word; my soul hath hoped in the Lord.
R: From the morning watch even until night; let Israel hope in the Lord.
V: Because with the Lord there is mercy; and with Him plenteous redemption.
R: And He shall redeem Israel from all its iniquities.
V: Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them:
R: May they rest in peace. Amen.
Prayer
O Lord Jesus, by the merits of the sorrows of Thy Virgin Mother, release from Purgatory the soul that is dearest to Thee. Place it today in Heaven, that in union with the angels and Thy Blessed Mother it may forever praise Thee.
