The Roman Missal: Easter Sunday and Easter Week (English) 6

1[Easter Friday.]
2Introit. Ps. lxxvii. The Lord brought them out in hope, alleluia: and the sea overwhelmed their enemies, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia. Attend, O my people, to my law: incline your ears to the words of my mouth. Glory, &c.
3Prayer. Omnipotens. O Almighty and everlasting God, who hast bestowed the paschal mystery in the covenant of man's reconciliation, grant that our mind may imitate in effect what we celebrate in profession. Through our Lord, &c.
4[Second Prayer, Ecclesiæ tuæ, or Deus omnium, as in page 39.]
5Epistle. 1 Peter iii. 18—22. Dearly beloved, Christ died once for our sins, the just for the unjust, that he might offer us to God, being put to death indeed in the flesh, but enlivened in the Spirit. In which also coming, he preached to those spirits that were in prison, which had been sometime incredulous, when they waited for the patience of God in the days of Noe, when the ark was building; wherein a few, that is, eight souls, were saved by water. Whereunto baptism being of the like form, now saveth you also; not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the examination of a good conscience towards God, by the resurrection of Jesus Christ our Lord, who is on the right hand of God.
6Gradual. This is the day which the Lord hath made: let us be glad and rejoice therein. Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; the Lord is God, and he hath shone forth unto us. Alleluia, alleluia. Say ye among the gentiles, the Lord hath reigned from a tree.
7[Sequence, Victimæ paschali, &c. as on Sunday.]
8Gospel. St Matthew xxviii. 16—20. At that time, the eleven disciples went into Galilee, unto the mountain where Jesus had appointed them: and seeing him they adored; but some doubted. And Jesus coming, spoke to them, saying, All power is given to me in heaven and in earth. Going, therefore, teach ye all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost; teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you. And behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world.
9[Credo.]
10Offertory. This day shall be for a memorial to you, Alleluia: and you shall keep it a solemn feast to the Lord: in your generations an everlasting legal day, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.
11Secret. Be appeased, we beseech thee, O Lord, and receive these oblations, which we bring for the expiation of the sins of those who are regenerated, and for the hastening of heavenly assistance. Through our Lord, &c.
12[Second Secret as in page 40.]
13Communion. All power is given to me in heaven and on earth, alleluia: going teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: alleluia, alleluia.
14Postcom. Respice. Look down upon thy people, we beseech thee, O Lord, and mercifully absolve them from temporal faults, whom thou hast vouchsafed to renew with eternal mysteries. Through, &c.
