God the Father has gathered his Church in unity through Christ. With joy in our hearts let us ask him:
Send your Holy Spirit into the Church.
You desire the unity of all Christians through one baptism in the Spirit,
— make all who believe one in heart and soul.
Send your Holy Spirit into the Church.
You desire the whole world to be filled with the Spirit,
— help all mankind to build a world of justice and peace.
Send your Holy Spirit into the Church.
Lord God, Father of all mankind, you desire to gather together your scattered children in unity of faith,
— enlighten the world by the grace of the Holy Spirit.
Send your Holy Spirit into the Church.
Through the Spirit you make all things new,
— heal the sick, comfort the distressed, give salvation to all.
Send your Holy Spirit into the Church.
Through the Spirit you raised your Son from the dead,
— raise up the bodies of the dead into everlasting life.
Send your Holy Spirit into the Church.
