Prayer, day 1834


Almighty God,
whose Love came down to us
in the gift of your Son to lead us to truth,
we bow before You in prayer.

Send your Spirit of Peace and Wisdom
to pull back that which veils our hearts,
that we may stand before You in thankfulness.

We have been marked as your own, O God:
may we lift up our voices in unceasing praise.
Hold us fast within your safekeeping,
O Rock of Salvation,
and guide us into holy fellowship as your children.

Bless us and preserve us, Lord Christ,
and give ear to the prayers of those we now name.

Amen.
