Eternal God, Father of Our Lord Jesus Christ, open our hearts to the riches of your mercy and the glories of your love.

By the grace of your Holy Spirit, give us a share in:

your wisdom to purify our minds; your compassion, to make gentle our hearts; your truth, to sharpen our consciences; your beauty, to enliven our souls; your peace to calm our fears;

for your holy name's sake.     Amen.
