Collect of the Second Sunday after Easter (Deus, qui in Filii tui humilitate iacentem mundum erexisti)
O God, who in the humility of Thy Son hast raised up a fallen world: grant to Thy faithful people perpetual gladness; and as Thou hast delivered them from the perils of eternal death, make them to rejoice with everlasting joy. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, etc. Amen.
