PRAYERS OF SAINT AUGUSTINE
Eternal God, who are the light of the minds that know you, the joy of the hearts that love you, and the strength of the wills that serve you; grant us so to know you, that we may truly love you, and so to love you that we may fully serve you, whom to serve is perfect freedom, in Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Watch, dear Lord with those who
wake or watch or weep tonight, and give your angels charge over those
who sleep. Tend your sick ones, O Lord Jesus Christ, rest your weary ones,
bless your dying ones, soothe your suffering ones, shield your joyous
ones, and all for your love's sake. |
