Faithful God, source of all good, graft in our hearts the love of your name, and bind us more closely to you so that you nourish the goodness you sow in us and, by your watchful care, you tend and guard the good you have nourished; through Jesus Christ who is alive with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
O God, you inspire the hearts of the faithful with a single longing, grant your people to love what you command and to desire what you promise, so that in all the changes and chances of this uncertain world, our hearts may surely there be fixed where true joys are to be found; through Jesus Christ who is alive with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
Gracious God, you have prepared for those who love you good things which no eye can see, and which surpass our understanding; pour into our hearts such longing for you, that we, loving you in all things and above all things, may obtain your promises, which exceed all that we can desire; through Jesus Christ who is alive with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
