Asperges Me (Antiphon for the Sprinkling of Holy Water)

Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, O Lord, and I shall be cleansed: Thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow. Have mercy on me, O God, according to Thy great mercy. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost: as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. Let us pray: Hear us, O holy Lord, Father Almighty, Eternal God; and vouchsafe to send Thy holy Angel from heaven, to guard, cherish, protect, visit, and defend all who dwell in this habitation. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
