God which as upon this day has taught the hearts of thy faithful people, by the sending to them the light of thy Holy Spirit:  Grant us by the same Spirit to have a right judgment in all things, and evermore to rejoice in his holy comfort [strength]; through the merits of Christ Jesu  our Savior, who liveth and reigneth with thee in the unity of the same Spirit, one God, world without end.
