Article 4 THE FINAL DOXOLOGY
2855
The final doxology, “For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours,
now and forever,” takes up again, by inclusion, the first three petitions
to our Father: the glorification of his name, the coming of his reign, and the
power of his saving will. But these prayers are now proclaimed as adoration and
thanksgiving, as in the liturgy of heaven.176 The ruler of this world
has mendaciously attributed to himself the three titles of kingship, power, and
glory.177 Christ, the Lord, restores them to his Father and our Father,
until he hands over the kingdom to him when the mystery of salvation will be
brought to its completion and God will be all in all.178
