Commontide

For the Acceptance of Prayer

Heavenly Father, you have promised to hear what we ask in the Name of your Son: Accept and fulfill our petitions, we pray, not as we ask in our ignorance, nor as we deserve in our sinfulness, but as you know and love us in your Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Psalm 61

To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. Of David.

Hear my cry, O God; give ear unto my prayer.

From the ends of the earth I will call upon you when my heart is in heaviness.

O set me upon the rock that is higher than I, for you have been my refuge and a strong tower for me against the enemy.

Let me dwell in your tabernacle for ever, and my refuge shall be under the covering of your wings.

For you, O God, have heard my vows, and have given a heritage to those who fear your Name.

You shall grant the king a long life, that his years may endure throughout all generations.

His throne shall abide before God for ever; O prepare your loving mercy and faithfulness, that they may preserve him.

So will I always sing praise unto your Name, that I may daily perform my vows.
