THE BLESSING OF SACRED VESSELS AND FURNISHINGS OF THE CHURCH OR ALTAR IN GENERAL
V. Our help is in the name of the Lord.
R. Who made heaven and earth.
V. The Lord be with you.
R. And with your spirit.
Let us pray: Almighty and Everlasting God, by whom the sordid is cleansed, from whom what is clean receives luster, we invoke thy omnipotent power. Confound all evil spirits and drive them far away: that the vessel and furnishings here laid before thee, hallowed by thy blessing †, may be used henceforth in the ministration of thy Church and altar. Through Christ our Lord.
R. Amen.
He sprinkles them with Holy Water.
