Holy Things which we have received, we may take on the effect of their
health in the glory of His immortality. +
Through the same our Lord Jesus Christ Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth
with Thee in the communion of the Holy Spirit, God through all the ages
of ages. Choir:

in joys eternal arrive at the fruition of what we now accomplish in
time. Through the same our Lord Jesus Christ Thy Son, Who liveth and
