Collect
Grant, we beseech thee, Almighty God, that like as we do believe thy only-begotten Son our Lord Jesus Christ to have ascended into the heavens; so we may also in heart and mind thither ascend, and with him continually dwell. Who with thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, liveth and reigneth God, world without end.
℟.Amen.
