Collect (ECUSA):

Merciful God, who sent your messengers the prophets to preach repentance and prepare the way for our salvation: Give us grace to heed their warnings and forsake our sins, that we may greet with joy the coming of Jesus Christ our Redeemer; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

Merciful God,
You sent the prophets to call us to repent and to prepare the way for Jesus.
Help us to listen to them and to do right,
so that we may be glad when Jesus comes;
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
