Saint Oswald, King of Northumbria, Martyr

Saint Oswald

Saint Oswald, illustration from a 13-century manuscript. From Wikipedia.

Hear us, Almighty and everlasting God, as we keep festival  this day in honour of the victorious death of thy servant Oswald beneath the shadow of the holy Cross; enlarge our hearts with like love towards thee, and grant us the courage that can triumph over every foe: through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

¶ Or this:

O Everlasting King, thou Lord of Hosts: Set up the Cross  of thy dear Son in the hearts of thy people that, with thy holy Martyr King Oswald, they may triumph over every foe; through the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
