All things have their season

Collect for the 23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time: 

1974-2011: 

God our Father,

you redeem us,

and make us your children in Christ. 

Look upon us,

give us true freedom

and bring us to the inheritance you promised. 

2012-

O God, by whom we are redeemed and receive adoption,

look graciously upon your beloved sons and daughters,

that those who believe in Christ

may receive true freedom

and an everlasting inheritance.
