Communion Soul of my Saviour sanctify my breast, Body of Christ, be thou my saving guest, Blood of my Saviour, bathe me in thy tide, wash me with waters flowing from thy side.

Strength and protection may thy passion be, O blessed Jesus, hear and answer me; deep in thy wounds, Lord, hide and shelter me, so shall I never, never part from thee.

Guard and defend me from the foe malign, in death's dread moments make me only thine; call me and bid me come to thee on high where I may praise thee with thy saints for aye.

FINAL COMMENDATION Saints of God, come to his aid; Hasten to meet him, angels of the Lord. Receive his soul and present him to God the most high.

May Christ who called you take you to Himself; May angels lead you to Abraham’s side. Receive his soul and present him to God the most high.

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, And let perpetual light shine upon him. Receive his soul and present him to God the most high.

Procession to the Crypt When Christ our Lord to Andrew cried: “Come, thou, and follow me,” The fisher left his net beside the Sea of Galilee. To teach the truth the Master taught, to tread the path he trod was all his will and thus he brought unnumbered souls to God.

When Andrew’s hour had come, and he was doomed, like Christ to die, he kissed his cross exultingly, and this his noble cry: “O noble cross! O precious wood! I long have yearned for thee; uplift me to my only good who died on thee for me.”

The faith that Andrew taught once shone o’er all this kingdom fair; the cross that Jesus died upon was honoured everywhere. But evil men that faith beat down Reviling Andrew’s name; the cross, though set in kingly crown, became a sign of shame.

St Andrew now in bliss above, thy fervent prayers renew that Scotland yet again may love the faith, entire and true; that I the cross allotted me may bear with patient love! ‘ Twill lift me, as it lifted thee, to reign with Christ above.

Recessional Antiphon

Salve, Regina, Mater misericordiæ, vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra, salve. Ad te clamamus exsules filii Hevæ, Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes in hac lacrimarum valle. Eia, ergo, advocata nostra, illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte; Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui, nobis post hoc exsilium ostende. O clemens, O pia, O dulcis Virgo Maria
