A PLEA FOR FORGIVENESS;
Forgive them all, O Lord:
our sins of omission and our sins of commission;
the sins of our youth and the sins of our riper years;
the sins of our souls and the sins of our bodies;
our secret and our more open sins;
our sins of ignorance and surprise,
and our more deliberate and presumptuous sin;
the sins we have done to please others;
the sins we know and remember,
and the sins we have forgotten;
the sins we have striven to hide from others
and the sins by which we have made others offend;
forgive them, O Lord, forgive them all
for his sake, who died for our sins and rose for
our justification,
and now stands at thy right hand to make
intercession for us, Jesus Christ our Lord.
--- John Wesley ---
A PRAYER FOR SURRENDER;
Take,Lord,
all my libeerty, my memory, my understanding,
and my whole will.
You have given me all that I have, all that I am,
and I surrender all to your divine will,
that you dispose of me.
Give me only your love and your grace.
With this I am rich enough,
and I have no more to ask.
---St. Ignatius Loyola ---
FOR DEDICATION TO GOD;
Teach us, Lord,
to serve you as you deserve,
to give and not to count the cost,
to fight and not to heed the wounds,
to toil and not to seek for rest,
to labour and not to ask for any reward
save that of knowing
that we do your will.
