the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and
invisible.
35. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all
ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
36. true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
37. and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate
of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake he was crucified
under Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
38. He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand
of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.
39. I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father
and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son
is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
40. I believe in one, holy, catholic
and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism
for the forgiveness of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection
of the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.
44. Christify the gifts we bring to
You,
bounty of the earth receive
anew.
Take and bless the work of our
hands.
Christify these gifts at Your
command.
45. Sun and moon and earth and
wind and rain:
all the world's contained in
every grain.
All the toil and dreams of
humankind,
all we are we bring as bread
and wine.
46. Turn the bread and wine,
our hearts implore,
to the living presence of the
Lord.
Blessed and broken, shared
with all in need;
all our hungers, sacred
bread will feed.
47. With this bread and wine You
Christify,
now our deepest thirst You
satisfy.
We who by this bread You
sanctify
draw the world for You to
Christify.

sacrifice at your hands
for the praise and
glory of his name,
for our good and the good
of all his holy Church.

of the Lord.

Has turned the night into day!
