Prayer for the Restoration of the Roman Mass
O Lord Jesus Christ, Eternal High Priest and Immaculate Lamb of God,
slain for us and for many on the Altar of Calvary,
and continually offered to Thy Heavenly Father
in the clean oblation of Thy Eucharistic Sacrifice;
grant,we beseech Thee, through the merits and prayers
of Thy Saints Gregory the Great, Thomas Aquinas,
and Pius V, that the holy Roman and Apostolic Catholic Mass,
ratified, expounded, and perpetuated by them respectively,
may be rightly restored to the Altars of Thy Church
throughout the world: that once again this most awesome,
majestic and perrenial rite may offer Infinite worship
and homage to the Most Blessed Trinity,
the fullest fruits and consolation and spiritual
nourishment to the faithful,
an impregnable defense and counterbalance against
the rising tide of evil, and a sure termination of the anguish,
fear, doubts, and profanations occasioned by its
unsanctioned abandonment and replacement.
O Holy Saints of the centuries,
who sanctified and nourished your souls with
the perennial Roman Mass,
and Holy Martyrs who shed their blood for it, grant,
we pray in desperation,
that we will no longer be bereft of it, and that we will,
as thee, commit ourselves to the Mass at all costs
and to the last breath of our lives.
Holy Virgin Mary, Mother of the Immaculate Eucharistic Victim,
pray for us that we may bravely, prudently,
and diligently and with sound doctrine and means,
pursue the rectification of the present encroachments
on the Eucharistic Sacrifice, and secure,
with thy powerful maternal aid, the restoration of our
Roman Catholic Mass
and the Reign and Order of the Kingship of Jesus Christ
thy Son. Amen.
