Collect of St Peter's Chair at Rome ~ Indulgenced on the Feast (See Note)

According to the Apostolic Penitentiary, a partial indulgence is granted to those who on the feast of any Saint recite in his honour the oration of the Missal or any other approved by legitimate Authority.


V.
 O Lord, hear my prayer.
R. And let my cry come unto thee.
Let us pray.
O God, Who hast given unto thy Blessed Apostle Peter the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and the power to bind and to loose, loose us, we beseech thee, at his mighty intercession, from all the bands of our sins.
Who livest and reignest with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end.

Nota Bene ~ St Peter's Chair at Rome is no longer celebrated on the Universal Calendar, but according to the Martyrology, today is the Feast Day. The Collect is taken from the Lauds of the Office when it was still celebrated.
