Antiphon and Prayer after Communion
Antiphon
Cf. Ps 33 (32): 18-19
Behold, the eyes of the Lord
are on those who fear him,
who hope in his merciful love,
to rescue their souls from death,
to keep them alive in famine.
Or: Mk 10: 45
The Son of Man has come
to give his life as a ransom for many.
Prayer after Communion
Grant, O Lord, we pray,
that, benefiting from participation in heavenly things,
we may be helped by what you give in this present age
and prepared for the gifts that are eternal.
Through Christ our Lord.
