Dominica I Passionis - Passion Sunday Collect

This collect for Passion Sunday asks God to 'look upon thy household, that by thy great goodness they may be governed and preserved evermore, both in body and soul.' The language of 'familia tua' (thy family/household) appears throughout Passiontide, emphasizing the Church as Christ's household redeemed by His blood.

LATINE
Quaesumus, omnipotens Deus, familiam tuam propitius respice: ut, te largiente, regatur in corpore; et, te servante, custodiatur in mente. Per Dominum.
ENGLISH
We beseech thee, Almighty God, look upon thy household, that by thy great goodness they may be governed and preserved evermore, both in body and soul. Through our Lord.
