Prayers Ancient and Modern 10/22
O God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, our only Saviour, the Prince of Peace; give us grace seriously to lay to heart the great dangers we are in by our unhappy divisions. Take away from us all hatred and prejudice, and whatsoever else may hinder us from godly union and concord; that as there is but one body, and one Spirit, and one hope of our calling, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of us all, so we may henceforth be all of one heart, and of one soul, united in one holy bond of truth and peace, of faith and charity, and may with one mind and one mouth glorify Thee; through Jesus Christ our Lord—Amen.
Book of Common Prayer, A.D. 1626
Thou knowest, O Lord, what most I require; help me, and out of the treasury of Thy goodness, succor Thou my needy soul—Amen.
E. B. Pusey.
