An ancient prayer from An Ancient Collect for love, morning, grace.
Almighty God, who fillest all things with Thy presence, we meekly beseech thee, of thy great love, to keep us near unto thee this day; grant that in all our ways and doings we may remember that thou seest us, and may always have grace to know and perceive what things thou wouldst have us to do, and strength to fulfil the same; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
This prayer is for love, morning, grace. It gives the request old words: fewer tricks, more flame.
Lord, hear this ancient prayer for love, morning, grace. Give mercy, strength, and a heart made faithful before Thee. Amen.
This prayer comes from the ancient church’s habit of asking directly: for mercy, for holiness, for protection, for light. It does not perform spirituality. It reaches for God.
Use it as written, or let it become a frame for the person and need in front of you.
Lord, hear this prayer in me: love, morning, grace.
Lord, remember [Name]. Give them love, morning, grace.
Lord, grant us together love, morning, grace, and keep us faithful before Thee.
It is for love, morning, grace.
