who didst send thy messengers the prophets
to preach repentance
and prepare the way for our salvation:
Give us grace to heed their warnings and forsake our sins,
that we may greet with joy the coming of Jesus Christ our Redeemer;
Who liveth and reigneth with thee
and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen."
- Book of Common Prayer, 1789
