Write your blessed name,
O Lord,
upon my heart,
there to remain so indelibly engraved,
that no prosperity,
no adversity
shall ever move me from your love.
Be to me a strong tower of defense,
a comforter in tribulation,
a deliverer in distress, a very present help in trouble.
Shepherd me through the many temptations and dangers of this life. Lead me to your kingdom.
Amen.
(THOMAS À KEMPIS (1379-1471) ADAPTED BY DOUGLAS MCKELVEY FROM PRAYERS ANCIENT AND MODERN (1900)
