Prayer for a Blessed Death

O Gracious God, Whose mercy hath no bounds; Who for our salvation hast suffered the Passions, wounds and death upon the cross, I heartily pray unto Thee: grant that I die as the righteous hath died; that I die not until I please Thee in all things, and partake of Thy Most Holy Body and of Thy Most Pure Blood.

Set me on the path of salvation, and at the time of my last breath preserve my accursed soul and drive away from it the dark images of the wile devils, and make me to inherit the everlasting glory.

For Thou art the King of Peace, and the Saviour of our souls, O Christ our God, and to Thee we ascribe glory, together with Thy Father, Who is from everlasting, and Thine All-Holy, and Good, and Life-giving Spirit, always, now, and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
