you made all things,
whom you sent as your Saviour

incarnate of the Holy Spirit,
and born of the Virgin.
Fulfilling your will
and gaining for you a holy people:
he stretched out his hands
as he endured his passion,
so as to break the bonds of death
and manifest the resurrection.

and manifest the resurrection.
And so, with the Angels and all the Saints
we declare your glory
