Oh my God, remember me for good.
Cleanse us in our business,
chasing from our heart what is strange to you.
Teach us to remember you house in all of our tasks,
To care for your servants,
even as you power your compassion to move us
into the dark world for times of exalting you.
Let our hearts covet only your face,
And rest in the times you appoint.
Teach this to us Lord,
To teach in our children, that you would grow
greater in each generation. Rise up oh God, in us
that we would stand as memorials
of your love, your power, and your greatness.
Let all our afflictions draw men to you,
and all our sorrows transform into your joys.
