Preface IV of Sundays in Ordinary Time: [The history of Salvation]
It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give you thanks,
Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God
through Christ our Lord.
For by his birth he brought renewal
to humanity's fallen state,
and by his suffering, canceled out our sins;
by his rising from the dead
he has opened the way to eternal life,
and by ascending to you, O Father,
he has unlocked the gates of heaven.
And so, with the company of Angels and Saints,
we sing the hymn of your praise,
as without end we acclaim:
Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts…

The rich suffer want and go hungry,
but those who seek the Lord lack no blessing. See Psalm 34:11 [Roman Missal]

When the Lord appears, we shall be like him,
