Prayers Ancient and Modern 01/08

Grant unto us, Almighty GOd, of Thy good Spirit, that quiet heart, and that patient lowliness to which Thy comforting Spirit comes; that we, being humble toward Thee, and loving toward one another, may have our heails prepared for that peace of Thine which passeth understanding; which, if we have, the storms of life can hurt us but iitile, and the cares of life vex us not at all; in presence of which death shall lose ils sting, and the grave its terror; and we, in calm joy, walk all the days of our appointed time, until our great change shall come—Amen.

George Dawson

O God, mercifully grant unto us that the fire of Thy love may burn up in us all things that displease Thee, and make us meet far Thy heavenly kingdom—Amen.
