Thro' thy triumphant ascension.
Thro' thy joys and glory,

In the day of judgment,

Lord Jesus, deliver us.

Let us pray.

O LORD Jesus Christ, who hast said, Ask, and ye shall receive; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you; mercifully attend to our supplications, and grant us the gift of divine charity, that we may ever love thee with our whole hearts, and never cease from praising thy holy name; who livest and reignest one God, world without end. Amen.

O divine Redeemer, give us a perpetual fear and love of thy holy name; for thou never ceasest to direct and govern by thy grace those whom thou instructest in the solidity of thy love; who livest and reignest, world without end. Amen.

O God, who hast appointed thy onlybegotten Son the Saviour of mankind, and hast commanded that he should be called Jesus; mercifully grant, that we may enjoy his happy vision in heaven, whose holy name we venerate upon earth: who, with thee and the Holy Ghost, liveth and reigneth, world without end. Amen.
