(While the above prayer is being said, the celebrant says
the following prayer in a low voice)

Blessed are You, O Lord, God of our Fathers / and glori-
ous is Your name. For, You did not deal with us in accor-
dance with our sins; / rather, in Your great mercy You
saved us from the power of darkness. You invited us into
the kingdom of Your Beloved Son and Our Lord, Jesus
Christ. Through Christ, You destroyed the strength of
death / and bestowed upon us eternal life.

Let there be praise, honor, thanksgiving, and worship to
You / to Your only begotten Son / and to the Holy Spirit.
Now, always, and forever.

(The celebrant bows and says the following prayer in a
low voice).
Lord, Our God, in Your mercy / forgive the sins and of-
fences of Your servants. Sanctify our lips to praise You,
O Most High, together with all the saints in the kingdom
of heaven.
