OO on the Holy Father

"Totus Tuus."

May you return to Him
who formed you from the dust of the earth.
May holy Mary, the angels, and all the saints
come to meet you as you go forth from this life.
May Christ, who was crucified for you,
bring you freedom and peace.
May Christ, who died for you,
admit you into His garden of paradise.
May Christ, the true Shepherd,
acknowledge you as one of His flock.
May he forgive all your sins
and set you among those He has chosen.
May you see your Redeemer face to face
and enjoy the vision of God forever.

Saints of God, come to his aid!
Come to meet him, angels of the Lord!

May Christ, who called you, take you to Himself;
May angels lead you to Abraham's side.

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord,
and may perpetual light shine upon him.

Amen.
