Collect of the First Sunday after Pentecost (Deus, in te sperantium fortitudo)
O God, the strength of those who put their trust in Thee, graciously accept our prayers; and because human infirmity without Thee can do nothing, grant us the help of Thy grace; that, in fulfilling Thy commandments, we may please Thee both in will and deed. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, etc. Amen.
