| The prayers of this service begin with the penitential **Psalm 51** (//"Have mercy on me, O God"//), expressing the desire for a pure heart with which the priest must approach the altar. After preparing the **Table**, the priest prays that his sacrifice may be accepted on the **spiritual altar above**, and that he and his congregation may become a **living sacrifice** on this heavenly altar. This prayer seeks that they may be deemed worthy of the **new life** in God's **heavenly temple**. | The prayers of this service begin with the penitential **Psalm 51** (//"Have mercy on me, O God"//), expressing the desire for a pure heart with which the priest must approach the altar.
