Sentence

Collect

Almighty and everlasting God,
who stooped to raise fallen humanity
through the child-bearing of blessed Mary:
grant that we who have seen your glory
   revealed in our human nature,
and your love made perfect in our weakness
may daily be renewed in your image,
and conformed to the pattern of your Son,
Jesus Christ our Lord
who is alive and reigns with you
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.           [PAS*]
