Listen to and Learn the entire Mass in Latin
 

Prayer changes lives. For the better. Always. There is no greater, no more effective way to change our lives and those of others —  for the good — than prayer ... praying to God. Prayer is the communication between God and man. We will not know God apart from prayer,  — this dialogue between God and man — anymore than we will come to know anyone apart from speaking to them and listening to them.

Through prayer alone we come to know God's will for us.

Prayer is God vis-ŕ-vis man.

You can give nothing, absolutely nothing, to another greater than a prayer. In prayer you are bringing God — and there is no one and nothing that is a greater good than God — into the lives of others, asking of Him what they may not  and sometimes will not, or dare not, ask for themselves. Perhaps they do not know how ... to pray.

Each prayer is prayed (not recited) slowly and without haste, enabling the listener to learn to pronounce the Latin correctly, and to realize that one is, in fact, talking to a Person, God, as one would talk to any person, but — of course — more reverently, and without affectation. You are listening to a soul praying to God ... not as a language lesson ... but as an expression of intimate and reverent love.

Learn to pray, and teach others to pray as our forefathers did, for over 2000 years, in the timeless beauty of Latin.

Important pronunciation notes —  just three:

  • h or H is silent in Ecclesiastical Latin: we have put a strike-through mark though h or H (h or H) to indicate this
  • Wherever gn or Gn occurs it is pronounced as nyu as in Agnus Dei (AhnYoos Dei) See here for complete pronunciation guide
  • The diacritical mark  ʹ is intended to indicate where emphasis occurs in a word

N
icene Creed

I believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.



And in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
 

God from God, Light from Light,
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,

and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary


AND BECAME MAN
  (here bow)

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.


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.

And 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.


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.

 


Symbolum Quicumque Vult

 

Quicumque vult salvus esse, anté omnia opus est, ut teneat Catholicam fidem:

Quam nisi quisque integram inviolatamque servavérit, absque dubio in aetérnum peribit.


Fides autem Catholica haéc est: ut unum Déum in Trinitate, et Trinitatem in unitate venerémur.

Néque confundéntes pérsonas, néque substantiam seperantes.

Alia est énim persona Patris alia Filii, alia Spiritus Sancti: Sed Patris, et Fili, et Spiritus Sancti una est divinitas, aequalis gloria, coeterna maiestas.


Qualis Pater, talis Filius, talis et Spiritus Sanctus. Increatus Pater, increatus Filius, increatus et Spiritus Sanctus.


Immensus Pater, immensus Filius, immensus et Spiritus Sanctus.


Aetérnus Pater, aetérnus Filius, aetérnus et Spiritus Sanctus.

Et tamen non trés aetérni, sed unus aetérnus.

Sicut non tres increati, nec tres immensi, sed unus increatus, et unus imménsus.

Similiter omnipotens Pater, omnipotens Filius, omnipotens et Spiritus Sanctus.

Et tamen non tres omnipotentes, sed unus Omnipotens.

Ita Deus Pater, Deus Filius, Deus et Spiritus Sanctus. Et tamen non tres dii, sed unus est Deus.

Ita Dominus Pater, Dominus Filius, Dominus et Spiritus Sanctus. Et tamen non tres Domini, sed unus est Dominus.

Quia, sicut singillatim unamquamque Personam Déum ac Dominum confiteri Christiana veritate compélimur: Ita tres Deos aut tres Dominos dicere Catholica religione prohibemur.


Pater a nullo est factus: nec creatus, nec génitus.

Filius a Patre solo est: non factus, nec creatus, sed genitus.
 

Spiritus Sanctus a Patre et Filio: non factus, nec creatus, nec génitus, sed procédens.
 
Unus ergo Pater, non tres Patres: unus Filius, non tres Filii:

unus Spiritus Sanctus, non tres Spiritus Sancti.

Et in hac Trinitate nihil prius aut posterius, nihil maius aut minus: Sed totae tres personae coaéternae sibi sunt et coaéquales.


Ita, ut per omnia, sicut iam supra dictum est, et unitas in Trinitate, et Trinitas in unitate veneranda sit.

Qui vult ergo salvus ésse, ita de Trinitate séntiat.

Sed necessarium est ad aéternam salutem, ut incarnationem quoque Domini nostri Iesu Christi fidéliter crédat.

Est ergo fides recta ut crédamus et confiteamur, quia Dominus noster Iésus Christus, Dei Filius, Deus pariter et homo est.


Deus est ex substantia Patris anté saecula génitus: et homo est ex substantia matris in saéculo natus.

Perféctus Deus, perfectus homo: ex anima rationali et humana carné subsistens.

Aéqualis Patri secundum divinitatem: minor Patre secundum humanitatem.


Qui licet Deus sit et homo, non duo tamen, sed unus est Christus.

Unus autem non conversione divinitatis in carnem, sed assumptione humanitatis in Déum.

Unus omnino, non confusione substantiaé, sed unitate personae.


Nam sicut anima rationalis et caro unus est homo: ita Deus et homo unus est Christus.

Qui passus est pro salute nostra: descéndit ad inféros: tértia die resurrexit a mortuis.

Ascendit ad in Caélos, sédet ad déxteram Dei Patris omnipotentis.

Indé venturus est judicare vivos et mortuos.

Ad cujus adventum omnes homines resurgére habent cum corporibus suis; Et reddituri sunt de factis propriis rationem.

Et qui bona égerunt, ibunt in vitam aéternam:

qui vero mala, in ignem aéternum.

Haec est fides Catholica, quam nisi quisque fidéliter firmiterque crediderit, salvus esse non poterit.

Athanasian Creed
 


W
hosoever will be saved
, before all things it is necessary that he hold the Catholic Faith.

Which Faith except every one do keep whole and undefiled; without doubt he shall perish everlastingly.


And the Catholic Faith is this: That we worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in Unity;

Neither confounding the Persons; nor dividing the Essence.

For there is one Person of the Father; another of the Son; and another of the Holy Ghost. But the Godhead of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, is all one; the Glory equal, the Majesty coeternal.

Such as the Father is; such is the Son; and such is the Holy Ghost. The Father uncreated; the Son uncreated; and the Holy Ghost uncreated.

The Father unlimited; the Son unlimited; and the Holy Ghost unlimited.

The Father eternal; the Son eternal; and the Holy Ghost eternal.

And yet they are not three eternals; but one eternal.

As also there are not three uncreated; nor three infinites, but one uncreated; and one infinite.

So likewise the Father is Almighty; the Son Almighty; and the Holy Ghost Almighty.

And yet they are not three almighties; but one Almighty.

So the Father is God; the Son is God; and the Holy Ghost is God. And yet they are not three Gods; but one God.

So likewise the Father is Lord; the Son Lord; and the Holy Ghost Lord. And yet not three Lords; but one Lord.

For like as we are compelled by the Christian verity; to acknowledge every Person by himself to be God and Lord; So are we forbidden by the Catholic Religion; to say, There are three Gods, or three Lords.

The Father is made of none; neither created, nor begotten.

The Son is of the Father alone; not made, nor created; but begotten.

The Holy Ghost is of the Father and of the Son; neither made, nor created, nor begotten; but proceeding.

So there is one Father, not three Fathers; one Son, not three Sons;

one Holy Ghost, not three Holy Ghosts.

And in this Trinity none is before, or after another; none is greater, or less than another. But the whole three Persons are coeternal, and coequal.

So that in all things, as aforesaid; the Unity in Trinity, and the Trinity in Unity, is to be worshipped.

He therefore that will be saved, let him thus think of the Trinity.

Furthermore it is necessary to everlasting salvation; that he also believe faithfully the Incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

For the right Faith is, that we believe and confess; that our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is God and Man;


God, of the Essence of the Father; begotten before the worlds; and Man, of the Essence of his Mother, born in the world.

Perfect God; and perfect Man, of a reasonable soul and human flesh subsisting.

Equal to the Father, as touching his Godhead; and inferior to the Father as touching his Manhood.


Who although he is God and Man; yet he is not two, but one Christ.

One; not by conversion of the Godhead into flesh; but by assumption of the Manhood into God.

One altogether; not by confusion of Essence; but by unity of Person.

For as the reasonable soul and flesh is one man; so God and Man is one Christ;

Who suffered for our salvation; descended into hell; rose again the third day from the dead.

He ascended into heaven, he sitteth on the right hand of the God the Father Almighty,

from whence he will come to judge the quick and the dead.

At whose coming all men will rise again with their bodies; And shall give account for their own works.

And they that have done good shall go into life everlasting;

and they that have done evil, into everlasting fire.

This is the Catholic Faith; which except a man believe truly and firmly, he cannot be saved.

and I detest these and all my sins


because I dread the loss of Heaven and the pains of Hell.

To confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life.

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy,
Hail our life, our sweetness and our hope.
To thee do we cry,

We believe that Thou shalt come to be our Judge.

We therefore pray Thee, help Thy servants

whom Thou hast redeemed with Thy precious blood.

Make them to be numbered with Thy Saints in glory everlasting.

O Lord, save Thy people and bless Thine heritage.

Come, Holy Ghost


Come, Holy Ghost,

send down those beams,
which sweetly flow in silent streams
from Thy bright throne above

O come, Thou Father of the poor;

O come, Thou source of all our store,

come, fill our hearts with love.


O Thou, of comforters the best,

O Thou, the soul's delightful guest,

the pilgrim's sweet relief.


Rest art Thou in our toil, most sweet

refreshment in the noonday heat;

and solace in our grief.


O blessed Light of life Thou art;

fill with Thy light the inmost heart

of those who hope in Thee.


Without Thy Godhead nothing can,

have any price or worth in man,

nothing can harmless be.


Lord, wash our sinful stains away,

refresh from heaven our barren clay,

our wounds and bruises heal.


To Thy sweet yoke our stiff necks bow,

warm with Thy fire our hearts of snow,

our wandering feet recall.


Grant to Thy faithful, dearest Lord,

whose only hope is Thy sure word,

the sevenfold gifts of grace.


Grant us in life Thy grace that we,

in peace may die and ever be,

in joy before Thy face.

Ad Sancte Michaelum Archangelum

(completus)


Prínceps gloriosíssime coeléstis milítiae, sancte Míchael Archángele, defénde nos in proélio et colluctatióne, quae nobis est advérsus príncipes et potestátes, advérsus múndi rectóres tenebrárum hárum, contra spirituália nequítiae, in coeléstibus.
Véni in auxílium hóminum; quos Deus creávit inexterminábiles, et ad imáginem similitúdinis suae fécit, et a tyránnide diáboli emit prétio mágno 

Proeliáre hódie cum beatórum Angelórum exércitu proélia Dómini, sícut pugnásti ólim contra dúcem supérbiae lucíferum et ángelus éjus apostáticos; et non valuérunt, néque lócus invéntus est eórum ámplius in caélo. Sed projéctus est dráco ílle mágnus, sérpens antíquus, qui vocátur diábolus et sátanas, qui sedúcit univérsum órbem; et projéctus est in térram, et ángeli éjus cum íllo míssi sunt.

En antíquus inimícus et homicída veheménter eréctus est. Transfigurátus in ángelum lúcis, cum tóta malignórum spirítuum catérva láte círcuit et invádit térram, ut in ea déleat nómen Dei et Christi éjus, animásque ad aetérnae glóriae corónam destinátas furétur, máctet ac pérdat in sempitérnum intéritum.


Vírus nequítiae suae, támquam flúmen immundíssimum, dráco maléficus transfúndit in hómines depravátos ménte et corrúptos córde; spíritum mendácii, impietátis et blasphémiae; halitúmque mortíferum luxúriae, vitiórum ómnium et iniquitátum.

 
Ecclésiam, Ágni immaculáti spónsam, vaférrimi hóstes replevérunt amaritudínibus, inebriárunt absínthio; ad ómnia desiderabília éjus ímpias misérunt mánus. Úbi sédes beatíssimi Pétri et Cáthedra veritátis ad lúcem géntium constitúta est, ibi thrónum posuérunt abominatiónis et impietátis suae; ut percússo Pastóre, et grégem dispérdere váleant.

 

Adésto ítaquae, Dux invictíssime, pópulo Dei contra irrumpéntes spiritáles nequítias, et fac victóriam. Te custódem et patrónum sáncta venerátur Ecclésia; te gloriátur defensóre advérsus terréstrium et infernórum nefárias potestátes; tíbi trádidit Dóminus ánimas redemptórum in supérna felicitáte locándas. Deprecáre Deum pácis, ut cónterat sátanam sub pédibus nóstris, ne últra váleat captívos tenére hómines, et Ecclésiae nocére. Óffer nóstras préces in conspéctu Altíssimi, ut cíto antícipent nos misericórdiae Dómini, et apprehéndas dracónem serpéntem antíquum, qui est diábolus et sátanas, ac ligátum míttas in abýssum, ut non sedúcat ámplius géntes.

Prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel

(complete prayer Pope Leo XIII)

 

“O Glorious Prince of the heavenly host, St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in the battle and in the terrible warfare that we are waging against the principalities and powers, against the rulers of this world of darkness, against the evil spirits.

Come to the aid of man, whom Almighty God created immortal, made in His own image and likeness, and redeemed at a great price from the tyranny of Satan.

“Fight this day the battle of the Lord, together with the holy angels, as already thou hast fought the leader of the proud angels, Lucifer, and his apostate host, who were powerless to resist thee, nor was there place for them any longer in Heaven. That cruel, ancient serpent, who is called the devil or Satan who seduces the whole world, was cast into the abyss with his angels.

Behold, this primeval enemy and slayer of men has taken courage. Transformed into an angel of light, he wanders about with all the multitude of wicked spirits, invading the earth in order to blot out the name of God and of His Christ, to seize upon, slay and cast into eternal perdition souls destined for the crown of eternal glory.

This wicked dragon pours out, as a most impure flood, the venom of his malice on men of depraved mind and corrupt heart, the spirit of lying, of impiety, of blasphemy, and the pestilent breath of impurity, and of every vice and iniquity.

“These most crafty enemies have filled and inebriated with gall and bitterness the Church, the spouse of the immaculate Lamb, and have laid impious hands on her most sacred possessions. In the Holy Place itself, where the See of Holy Peter and the Chair of Truth has been set up as the light of the world, they have raised the throne of their abominable impiety, with the iniquitous design that when the Pastor has been struck, the sheep may be scattered.


“Arise then, O invincible Prince, bring help against the attacks of the lost spirits to the people of God, and give them the victory. They venerate thee as their protector and patron; in thee holy Church glories as her defense against the malicious power of hell; to thee has God entrusted the souls of men to be established in heavenly beatitude. Oh, pray to the God of peace that He may put Satan under our feet, so far conquered that he may no longer be able to hold men in captivity and harm the Church. Offer our prayers in the sight of the Most High, so that they may quickly find mercy in the sight of the Lord; and vanquishing the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, do thou again make him captive in the abyss, that he may no longer seduce the nations. Amen.


 

 



℣.
Behold the Cross of the Lord; be scattered ye hostile powers.
℟.  The Lion of the tribe of Judah has conquered, the root of David.
℣. Let Thy mercies be upon us, O Lord.

℟.
 As we have hoped in Thee.
 

℣. O Lord, hear my prayer.
℟. And let my cry come unto Thee.

Let us pray.

O God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, we call upon Thy holy Name, and as supplicants, we implore Thy clemency, that by the intercession of Mary, ever Virgin Immaculate and our Mother, and of the glorious St. Michael the Archangel, Thou wouldst deign to help us against Satan and all the other unclean spirits who wander about the world for the injury of the human race and the ruin of souls.


 

Through Christ our Lord
℟.  Amen.

 


 

En Ego, O Bone et Dulcissimae, Iesu
 


En ego, o bone et dulcissime Iesu,

ante conspectum tuum genibus me provolvo,

ac maximo animi ardore Te oro atque obtéstor,

ut meum in cor vividos Fidéi, Spéi et Caritatis sénsus,

atque veram peccatorum meorum poenitentiam,


eaque emendandi firmissimam voluntatem velis imprimere;


dum magno animi affectu et dolore

Tua quinque vulnera mécum ipse considero ac ménte contémplor,

illud praé oculis habens, quod iam in ore ponébat Tuo David propheta de Te, O bono Iesu:

 

Foderunt manus meas et pédes meos: dinumeraverunt omnia ossa méa.

Prayer before a Crucifix
 


Behold, o kind and most sweet Jesus,

I cast myself upon my knees in Thy sight,

and with most fervent desire of my soul I pray and beseech Thee

that Thou wouldst impress upon my heart lively sentiments of Faith, Hope and Charity,

with true contrition for my sins,


and a firm purpose of amendment

while with deep affection and grief of soul,

I ponder within myself and mentally contemplate

Thy five wounds, having before my eyes the words which David the prophet put on Thy lips concerning Thee, O good Jesus:

 “They have pierced my hands and feet, they have numbered all my bones.”
 

Amen.

offerre valeamus digne ac fructuose illud sumere valeamus.

Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary

before Mass

 

O Mother of mercy and of love, most blessed Virgin Mary,

I, a poor and unworthy sinner, fly to thee

with all my heart and all my affection. I implore thy loving-kindness,

that even as thou didst stand beside thy dear Son as He hung upon the Cross,

so wilt thou also stand by me, a poor sinner,


and by all the priests who are offering Mass here today and throughout all Holy [Mother] Church

and beside all thy faithful people receiving the most sacred Body of thy Son.
 

Grant us, that by thy grace, we may offer a worthy and acceptable sacrifice

in the sight of the Most High and Undivided Trinity

receive it worthily and fruitfully. Amen.
 

Amen.

Novena to the Sacred Heart



Lord Jesus
, Who have deigned to open by Your special love the unutterable

goodness and riches of Your Heart to Your Bride, the Church:

grant to us, your servants, that we may merit to be enriched and refreshed by Your heavenly graces, flowing from this sweetest of fountains.

℣. Heart of Jesus, burning with love for us.

℟.  Set our hearts on fire with love of You.

who are dear to us. To You, therefore, we commend all these souls, and in

their behalf we offer unto You all the merits of Your Sacred Heart.


℟.  Amen.

our due of worthy satisfaction.

Through the same Christ our Lord.

℟.  Amen.

 


 

De Profundis

(Psalmus 129)


De profundis clamavi ad te, Domine:

Domine, exaudi vocem meam:

Fiant aures tuae intendentes, in vocem deprecationis meae.

Si iniquitates observaveris, Domine: Domine, quis sustinébit?

Quia apud te propitiatio est: et propter legem tuam sustinui te, Domine.

Sustinuit anima mea in verbo eius:

speravit anima mea in Domino.

A custodia matutina usque ad noctem:

speret Israel in Domino.

Quia apud Dominum misericordia: et copiosa apud eum redemptio.

Et ipse rédimet Israel, ex omnibus iniquitatibus éius.

Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto.

Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in saecula saeculorum.

Amén.

 Out of the Depths

(Psalm 129)

 

Out of the depths I have cried to Thee,

O Lord: Lord, hear my voice.

Let Thy ears be attentive * to the voice of my supplication.


If Thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it?

For with Thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of thy law, I have waited for Thee, O Lord.

My soul hath relied on His word,

my soul hath hoped in the Lord.

From the morning watch even until night,

let Israel hope in the Lord.

Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption.

And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
 

Glory be to the Father and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.

As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.

 

Amen.

Magnificat

 

Magníficat ánima mea Dóminum.
Et exultávit spíritus meus: in Deo salutári meo.
Quia respéxit humilitátem ancíllae suae:
Ecce enim ex hoc beátam me dicent omnes generatiónes.
Quia fécit mihi mágna qui pótens est: et sánctum nómen eius.
Et misericórdia eius in progénies et progénies timéntibus eum.

Fécit poténtiam in bráchio suo: dispérsit supérbos mente cordis sui.
Depósuit poténtes de sede: et exaltávit húmiles.
Esuriéntes implévit bonis: et dívites dimísit inánes.
Suscépit Ísrael púerum suum: recordátus misericórdiae suae.
Sicut locútus est ad patres nostros: Ábraham, et sémini eius in saecula.

Amen.

The Magnificat

 

My soul doth magnify the Lord.
And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
Because he hath regarded the humility of his handmaid;
for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
Because he that is mighty, hath done great things to me; and holy is his name.
And his mercy is from generation unto generations, to them that fear him.

He hath shewed might in his arm: he hath scattered the proud in the conceit of their heart.
He hath put down the mighty from their seat, and hath exalted the humble. He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.
He hath received Israel his servant, being mindful of his mercy:
As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his seed forever.

Amen.

The Johannine Prologue

(The Last Gospel)

(St. John 1.1-14)
 


I
n principio erat Verbum et Verbum érat apud Deum

et Deus érat Verbum: hoc érat in principio apud Deum.

Omnia per Ipsum facta sunt et sine Ipso factum est nihil quod factum est.



In Ipso vita érat et vita érat Lux hominum et Lux in ténebris lucet et ténebrae éam non comprehénderunt.

Fuit homo missus a Deo cui nomen érat Iohannes.

Hic venit in testimonium ut testimonium perhiberet de Lumine ut omnes crederent per illum.

Non érat ille Lux sed ut testimonium perhiberet de lumine.

Erat Lux vera, quae illuminat omnem hominem veniéntem in hunc mundum.

In mundo erat et mundus per Ipsum factus est et mundus Eum non cognovit.

In propria venit et Sui éum non recéperunt.

Quotquot autem recéperunt Eum dedit Eis potestatem filios Dei fiéri,

h
is qui credunt in nomine Eius qui non ex sanguinibus neque ex voluntate carnis neque ex voluntate viri sed ex

Deo nati sunt.



Et Verbum caro factum est et habitavit in nobis
et
vidimus gloriam Eius gloriam quasi unigeniti a Patre plenum gratiae et veritatis.

 ℟. Deo Gratias

The Last Gospel
 

 




In the beginning
was the Word, and the Word was with God,

and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God.

All things were made by Him: and without Him was made nothing that was made.


In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
 
This man came for a witness, to give testimony of the Light, that all men might believe through Him.

He was not the Light, but was to give testimony of the Light.

That was the true Light, which enlighteneth every man that cometh into this world.

He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not.

He came unto His own, and His own received him not.

But as many as received Him, He gave them power to be made the sons of God,

to them that believe in His name. Who are born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man,

but of God.
 

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, the glory as it were of the Only Begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
