Prayer Before Worship

O God, because you have prepared for those who love you such good

things as surpass our understanding, pour into our hearts such love towards

you that we, loving you above all things, may obtain your promises, which

exceed all that we can desire; through Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and

reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen!
