The Feast of All Saints, la festa di Ognissanti

All ye holy saints, orate pro nobis
Guadeámus omnes in Dómino, diem festum celbrántes sub honóre Sanctórum ómnium: de quorum solemnitáte gaudent Angeli, et colláudant Filium Dei. ps. 32, 1. Exsultáte, justi, in Dómino: rectos decet collaudátio. V Glória Patri. 
Let us all rejoice in the Lord, celebrating a feast in honor of all the saints, in whose solemnity the angels rejoice and join in praising the Son of God. Ps. 32, 1. Rejoice in the Lord, ye just: praise becometh the upright. V. Glory
November 1st is All Saints' Day, la festa di Ognissanti, a holy day of obligation in honor of all the saints, known and unknown. In celebration, I'm posting the Introit and Prayer for the Feast of All Saints Day in Latin and English. The accompanying photo was taken in the old Hall of Saints at the Shrine Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel (275 N 8th Street) in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
Prayer
Omnípotens sempitérne Deus, qui nos ómnium Sanctórum tuóram mérita sub una tribuísti celebritáte venerári: quæsumas: ut desiderátam nobis tuæ propitiatiónis abundántiam multiplicátis intercessóribus, largiáris. Per Dóminum.
O Almighty, eternal God, Who hast granted us to venerate the merits of all Thy saints in one solemnity, vouchsafe to us, we beseech Thee, through the multitude of our intercessors, that abundance of Thy mercy for which we ever have hoped. Through our Lord.
