“O God, our heavenly Father, who through thy Son hast promised us thy Holy Spirit, send down upon us that same Spirit, that he may teach us to show forth thy praise, not only here on earth in weakness , since we know thy power and glory only from afar, but also in power and glory on that day when, united with the choir of angels, we shall see thee face to face, through the same Jesus Christ, they Son, our Lord. Amen.”
