O God…

O God, the King of glory,

you have exalted your only Son Jesus Christ

with great triumph to your kingdom in heaven:

Do not leave us comfortless,

but send us your Holy Spirit to strengthen us,

and exalt us to that place where our Savior Christ has gone before;

who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,

one God, in glory everlasting.

Amen.
