O LORD, who hast given us cause of perpetual joy by the coming of Thy Son our Saviour among us: Raise up Thy power, we pray Thee, and possess us with a mighty sense of Thy wonderful love ; that whereas through the cares of this life we are sorely let and hindered in running the race that is set before us, we may be careful for nothing, but thankfully commending ourselves in every thing to Thy bountiful grace and mercy, the peace of Thee our God, which passeth all understanding, may keep our hearts and minds, through the satisfaction of Thy Son our Lord, to Whom, with Thee and the Holy Ghost, be honour and glory, world without end. Amen.
from A Book of Public Prayer
