Almighty
God, you alone can bring into order the unruly wills and affections of sinners:
Grant
your people grace to love what you command and desire what you promise; that,
among the swift and varied changes of the world, our hearts may surely there be
fixed where true joys are to be found; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives
and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
Book of Common Prayer
