O God, whose blessed Son came into the world
that he might destroy the works of the devil and make us children of
God and heirs of eternal life: Grant that, having this hope, we may
purify ourselves as he is pure; that, when he comes again with power
and great glory, we may be made like him in his eternal and glorious
kingdom; where he lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one
God, for ever and ever. Amen. BCP
