Second Sunday after Epiphany/Second Sunday of the Year: Collect
Omnipotens sempiterne Deus, qui caelestia simul et terrena moderaris, supplicationes populi tui clementer exaudi, et pacem tuam nostris concede temporibus.
"Almighty, eternal God, who govern the things both of heaven and of earth, in your goodness hear the prayers of your people, and grant your peace to our times."
Remarks:
*There is a pleasing parallel between heaven and peace, earth and time. May he who rules both heaven and earth give the peace of heaven in earthly time.
