Dear Lord, I am thankful that You have called me Your friend. May I ever be grateful for the privilege! You are very faithful and gracious to my life, oh Christ.
Cleanse, O Lord, my humble soul of all corporal and spiritual stain. Grant that I may during this day walk in thy Word, and this night have a peaceful sleep, so that on rising from my humble bed, I should continue to praise Thy holy Name throughout all the days of my life, and that I be victorious over all the physical and spiritual enemies battling against me. Deliver me, O Lord, from all vain thoughts that defile me, and from evil desires.
I beseech You mercifully to hear my prayers and the prayers of all Your people who call upon You. Grant that we may both perceive and know what things we ought to do, and also may have grace and power faithfully to fulfill them. Through Jesus Christ Your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with You, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
Amen
