Prayer for Today

Above all things, O Lord, let us

rejoice in your presence.

Let our hearts love you and let our

mouths proclaim you.

Let our souls hunger for you and let our whole being desire you;

until we are one with you, for you are God, blessed for ever.

Amen

Anselm of Canterbury c1033 - 1109
