Collect

We pray thee, O Lord, pour into our hearts the desire of heavenly glory: and grant that we, bringing our sheaves with us, may enter into that place where thy holy Abbot Columba shineth like a star before thee. Through thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who with thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, liveth and reigneth God, world without end.

℟.Amen.
