Francis thanks the Father for the creation, redemption and perfection of the world. He not only sees the Son at work, but also the Holy Spirit:
“All powerful, most holy, most high and supreme God… we thank You for Yourself,
for through Your holy will and through Your only Son with the Holy Spirit You have created all things spiritual and corporal and having made us in Your own image and likeness, You placed us in paradise… And because all of us wretches and sinners are not worthy to pronounce Your name, we humbly ask that our Lord Jesus Christ, Your beloved Son…together with the Holy Spirit, the Paraclete, give You thanks… (ER, 23:1.1 & 1.5).
