 Gradual
 Eternal rest give unto them, O Lord; and let 
              perpetual light shine upon them.
 The just shall be in everlasting remembrance, 
              he shall not fear the evil hearing.
 
 Offertory
 O Lord Jesus Christ, King of Glory, deliver 
              the souls of all the faithful departed from the pains of hell and 
              from the deep pit: deliver them from the lion's mouth, that hell 
              may not swallow them up, and may they not fall into darkness; but 
              may the holy standard-bearer, Michael, lead them into the holy light: 
              which Thou didst promise to Abraham and to his seed.
 Sacrifices and prayers we offer to Thee, O 
              Lord; receive them for those souls for whom we make memorial this 
              day; let them, O Lord, pass from death unto life. Which Thou didst 
              promise to Abraham . . .

 Responsory
 Deliver me, O Lord, from eternal death in 
              that awful day: When the heavens and the earth shall be moved: When 
              Thou shalt come to judge the world by fire. Dread and trembling 
              have laid hold of me, and I fear exceedingly because of the judgement 
              and the wrath, of sore distress, and of all wretchedness, that great 
              and exceeding bitter day. When Thou shalt come to judge the world 
              by fire. Eternal rest grant upon them, O Lord, and let perpetual 
              light shine upon them. Deliver me, O Lord, from eternal death in 
              that awful day: When the heavens and the earth shall be moved: When 
              Thou shalt come to judge the world by fire.
 Lord, have mercy upon us.
 Christ, have mercy upon us.
 Lord, have mercy upon us.
 
 MAGNIFICAT on the fifth tone in eight parts
 Hieronymus Praetorius [1622]
 
 My soul soth magnify the Lord,
 and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
 For he hath regarded the lowliness of his 
              handmaiden.
 For, behold, from henceforth all generations 
              shall call me blessed.
 For he that is mighty hath done to me great 
              things;
 and holy is his name.
 And his mercy is on them that fear him 
              from generation to generation.
 He hath shewed strength with his arm, he hath 
              scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
 He hath put down the mighty from their 
              seats, and exalted them of low degree.
 He hath filled the hungry with good things; 
              and the rich he hath sent empty away.
 He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance 
              of his mercy.
 As 
              he spake to our fathers, to Abraham and his 
              seed for ever.
 Glory be to the Father and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost
 As it was in the beginning is now and every shall be, world without 
              end.
 Amen.
