1. MORNNG PRAYER FOR SUNDAY.
Eternal, almighty God and Father, I return unto Thee most heartfelt thanks for having during this past night and times gone by graciously kept me by Thy holy angels from all harm and danger of body and soul; and I pray Thee from the inmost depths of my heart to forgive me all my sins wherewith I have ever offended Thee and to quicken my heart with Thy Holy Spirit tht I may daily grow and increase in Thy knowledge. Also gran me grace sincerely to guard against sin and shame on this day and be found in accord with Thy divine will, in order that I may walk so that, guarded against all ill, I shall always keep Thee in my heart and thoughts. And when the hour of my death draws nigh, I am to depart, grant, I beseech Thee, that I may fall asleep unto eternal life in the true knowledge of Thy dear Son Jesus Christ. Amen.
