Oremus. Deus, pro cuius Ecclesia gloriosus, Pontifex Thomas gladiis impiorum occubuit: praesta quaesumus; ut omnes qui implorant auxillium, petitionis suae salutarem consequamur effectum. Per Dominum nostrum Jesum Christum, qui Tecum vivit et regnat in unitate Spiritus Sancti Deus, per omnia saecula saeculorum. Amen.

Let us pray. O God, for the sake of Whose Church the glorious Bishop Thomas fell by the sword of ungodly men: grant, we beseech Thee, that all who implore his aid, may obtain the good fruit of his petition. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Who livest and reignest with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, forever and ever. Amen.

Jesu Bone, per Thome merita nostra nobis dimitte debita, domum, portam, sepulchrum vista, et a trina nos a morte suscita. Actu, mente vel usu perdita pietate restaura solita. Gloria Patri et Filio et Spiritu Sancto, sicut erat in principio et nunc et semper, et in saecula saeculorum. Amen.

Oh Good Jesus, for the sake of Thomas forgive us our trespasses, be present in our house, our gate and at his shrine and keep us safe from fell death. Restore to us our customary piety and keep us from straying in mind and body. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost, as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Gem of Canterbury, pray for us!
