stand before Thee,
O eternal One.
Let me not seek to deaden or destroy
the desire for Thee that disturbs my heart.
Let me rather yield myself to its constraint
and go where it leads me.
Make me wise to see all things today
under the form of eternity,
and make me brave to face all the changes in my life
which such a vision may entail:
through the grace of Christ my Saviour. Amen.
(a prayer of John Baillie)
