Absolve, Domine is the Tract of the Mass of the Dead. In the Tridentine rite it follows the Gradual, with which it is sometimes combined in a single movement.


Latin.png latin textAbsolve, Domine, animas omnium fidelium defunctorum ab omni vinculo delictorum.

(verse:) Et gratia tua illis succurrente, mereantur evadere Judicium ultionis.

Et lucis aeternae beatitudine perfrui.

And by your sustaining grace, may they be worthy of escaping the chastisement of judgment.

And partake in the happiness of eternal light.
