Protect us from sin. Grant,
O God the Father, that you keep us in your grace.

Oratio Dominica ("Tieve musu Danguiesis")  a fragment of 1 min 25 seconds

Our heavenly Father,
A sinful man comes to you.
Jesus Christ taught us
That a sinful man should pray
And supplicate with his mouth and heart
And not have fear.

Increase our grace.
You commanded us to live
In unity and grace
And not to forget goodness,
That we might serve you
And love your word.

You remove the darkness of night,
You are the brightness of light,
You reveal your holy light.
