The De Profundis for the Dead

Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord: Lord, hear my voice. Let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication. If thou, O Lord, shalt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it? For with thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of thy law I have waited for thee, O Lord. My soul hath relied on his word: my soul hath hoped in the Lord. From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord. Because with the Lord there is mercy, and with him plentiful redemption. And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities. V. Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord. R. And let perpetual light shine upon them. V. May they rest in peace. R. Amen. Let us pray. O God, the Creator and Redeemer of all the faithful, grant to the souls of thy servants departed the remission of all their sins, that through pious supplications they may obtain the pardon they have always desired. Who livest and reignest for ever and ever. Amen.
