Living God, it is your gift alone by which your faithful people offer you true and laudable service, grant, we beseech you, that we may run, without stumbling, towards your promises; through Jesus Christ who is alive with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
God of holiness, increase within us your gifts of faith, hope, and love, and make us cherish what you command, so that we may obtain what you promise; through Jesus Christ who is alive with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
Life-giving God, we pray that your grace may always precede and follow us, that we may continually be given to good works; through Jesus Christ who is alive with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
Compassionate God, you are always more ready to hear than we to pray, and to give more than we desire or deserve; pour upon us the abundance of your mercy, forgiving us those things of which our conscience is afraid, and giving us those things for which our prayer dares not ask; through Jesus Christ who is alive with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
God of heaven and earth, you declare your almighty power above all by showing mercy and compassion; grant us the fullness of your grace, that we, who are running to obtain your promises, may be partakers of your heavenly treasure; through Jesus Christ who is alive with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
