Truly, it is right and good to give you glory, to offer you our thanks, always and everywhere, to you, Holy Father, God Almighty and eternal, through Christ our Lord.
In the mystery of his Passover, he made a wonderful work because we were slaves to death and sin, and we are called to share his glory.
We now carry these glorious names: holy nation, a redeemed people, a chosen race, a royal priesthood.
