For Reverence of God’s Word
BLESSED Lord, by Whose Providence all Holy Scriptures were written and preserved for our instruction, give us grace to study them this and every day, with patience and love. Strengthen our souls with the fulness of their Divine teaching. Keep from us all pride and irreverence. Guide us in the deep things of Thy heavenly wisdom, and of Thy great mercy lead us by Thy Word unto everlasting life; through Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. Amen.
