We believe in one God,
The Father, the Almighty;
Maker of heaven and earth,
Of all that is seen and unseen.

Glory Be to the Father,

And to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning,
Is now,
And ever shall be,
World without end.
Amen.

O Hesus ko, patawarin Mo ang aming mga sala.
Iligtas Mo kami sa apoy ng impiyerno.
Hanguin Mo ang mga kaluluwa sa purgatoryo.
Lalong-lalo na yaong mga walang nakakaalaala.
