Lord, have mercy, thrice.
The mercy of God, the kingdom of heaven, and the forgiveness of his sins, we ask of thee, O Christ, our immortal King and God.
Vouchsafe, O Lord.
Deacon. Let us pray to the Lord.
Lord have mercy.
The priest saith this prayer,
O God of spirits and of every flesh, who didst tread down death, and overcome the devil, and bestow life upon thy world; do thou thyself, O Lord, rest the soul of thy servant, name, who hath fallen asleep, in a place of light, in a place of refreshment, in a place of rest, whence pain, and grief, and sighing are driven away; and every iniquity wrought by him, in word, or deed, or in intention, as the good man-loving God, do thou remit; for there is no man that shall live and shall not sin; for thou alone art without sin, thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy word the truth.
Exclamation.
For thou art the resurrection and the life, and the repose of thy servant, name, who hath fallen asleep, O Christ our God, and to thee we ascribe glory, with thine unbeginning Father, and with thy most holy, and good, and life-creating Spirit, now and ever, and to ages of ages. Amen.
