Introit & Collect Historic Western
The historic Western rite’s propers for this weekday Mass — not found in Lutheran service books; given for reference alongside the readings.
Introit
Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: deliver me out of the hands of my enemies, and from them that persecute me: let me not be confounded, O Lord, for I have called upon thee. Psalm. In thee, O Lord, have I hoped, let me never be confounded: deliver me in thy justice.
Collect of the Day
Mercifully infuse thy grace into our hearts, we beseech thee, O Lord; that refraining from sin by voluntary chastisement, we may be rather afflicted in time, than condemned to punishment for eternity. Through our Lord, &c.
In the old missal this Friday was kept as the feast of the Seven Dolours, the feria being commemorated by this collect; the introit — shared with Saturday — is transcribed from the Saturday printing.
