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.
