English text
O God, the king of glory,
which has exalted thy only Son Jesus Christ,
with great triumph, unto thy kingdom in heav'n,
we beseech thee leave us not comfortless
but send to us thine Holy Ghost to comfort and exalt us
unto the same place whither our saviour Christ is gone before.
Who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost,
now and for evermore. Amen.
