to fill us with this joy of the Holy Spirit
as you did your faithful servant Philip Neri.

that You become our only love and desire.
Enkindle in us the zeal and burning love
of the disciples gathered into Upper Room on Pentecost Sunday.
Then we will glorify You through Your Son,
Our Lord Jesus Christ,
in the power of the Holy Spirit before all the world.
