Let Us Pray

O Lord Jesus,
by the love Thou didst bear
to the virginal heart of Saint Gertrude
and by which Thou hast promised
that no sinner who would honor
and love her should die a sudden and unprovided death,
grant me, I beseech Thee, this grace,
and let me so love Thee
and repent of my sins
that with faith and confidence
I may expect a happy death.

Amen.

O God, Who in the heart of the holy virgin Gertrude
didst provide for Thyself a pleasing abode,
through her merits do Thou cleanse from our hearts
every stain of sin
and grant that we may enjoy fellowship
with her for evermore,
through Our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son,
Who liveth and reigneth with Thee
and the Holy Ghost, one God,
world without end.

Amen
