who ascended on high to fill all things:
O Lord Jesus Christ, who for our salvation didst lay aside thy crown of glory to accept a crown of thorns: Mercifully grant that we may so live by the grace thy suffering hath secured that, when thou comest to be our Judge, we may be placed on thy right hand and receive the crown of life that fadeth not away; who with the Father and the Holy Ghost livest and reignest one God, world without end.

Almighty God, whose most dear Son went not up to joy but first he suffered pain and entered not into glory before he was crucified: Mercifully grant that we walking in the way of the cross, may find it none other than the way of life and peace; through the same thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
5. The Crucifixion
who for us became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross:
O God, who didst teach the hearts of thy faithful people, by sending to them the light of thy Holy Spirit: Grant us by the same Spirit to have a right judgment in all things, and evermore to rejoice in his holy comfort; through the merits of Christ Jesus our Saviour, who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the same Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen.
Let us pray. Lord Jesus Christ, who didst stretch out thine arms of love on the hard wood of the cross that everyone might come within reach of thy saving embrace: so clothe us in thy Spirit that we, reaching forth our hands in love, may bring those who do not know thee to the knowledge and love of thee; for the honor of thy Name, who livest and reignest with the Father and the same Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
O Almighty God, who hast knit together thine elect in one communion and fellowship, in the mystical body of thy Son Christ our Lord: Grant us grace so to follow thy blessed Saints in all virtuous and godly living, that we may come to those unspeakable joys which thou hast prepared for them that unfeignedly love thee; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Thou art worthy, O Lord, * to receive glory and honor and power: For thou hast created all things, * and for thy pleasure they are and were created. Worthy is the Lamb that was slain, * to receive power and riches and wisdom and strength, and honor and glory and blessing! For he hath redeemed us to God by his blood * out of every kindred and tongue and nation, And hath made us unto our God kings and priests; * and we shall reign on the earth. Blessing and honor and glory and power be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, * and unto the Lamb for ever and ever. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, * world without end. Amen. Ant. We have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous; * and he is the propitiation for our sins. Almighty God, who hast promised to hear the petitions of those who ask in thy Sons Name; We beseech thee mercifully to incline thine ears to us who have now made our prayers and supplications unto thee; and grant that those things which we have faithfully asked according to thy will, may effectually be obtained, to the relief of our necessity, and to the setting forth of thy glory; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Ghost, be with us all evermore. Amen.
O God, who hast prepared for those who love thee such good things as pass mans understanding: Pour into our hearts such love toward thee, that we, loving thee above all things, may obtain thy promises, which exceed all that we can desire; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Amen.
Almighty Father, whose dear Son, on the night before he suffered, did institute the Sacrament of his Body and Blood: Mercifully grant that we may thankfully receive the same in remembrance of him, who in these holy mysteries giveth us a pledge of life eternal; the same thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who now liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit ever, one God, world without end. Amen.

Almighty and everliving God, whose Son Jesus Christ is the first-fruits of the new creation: Grant that we, being obedient to his word, may find in him the fulfillment of all our occasions and so be fitted to share the wedding-feast of his glorious kingdom; who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
