GRANT unto us, Almighty God, the good guidance of the light that lighteth every man that cometh into the world, and faithfulness to that light, that we may walk thereby; that thereby walking, we may know Thy will and keep it; and keeping Thy will, we may enter into life eternal. Grant unto us the light of Thy Spirit, that inwardly inclining ever unto Thy ways, we may be fitted to know them, to keep in them, and to walk in them even to the end; and then, through Thy great mercy in forgiving our sins, we may enter into the rest that remaineth for the people of God, through Jesus Christ our Lord.—AMEN.
