Ascension

RANT, we beseech thee, Almighty God : that like as we do believe thine only-begotten Son our Saviour to have ascended into the heavens; so we may also in heart and mind thither ascend, and with him continually dwell. Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen.

HOU didst ascend into glory, O Christ our God, having gladdened thy disciples by the promise of the Holy Spirit. And this blessing convinced them that thou art the Son of God, the Redeemer of the world.
