Almighty, eternal God, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Creator of heaven, earth, and humanity, together with Your
Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Word and Image, and with
Your Holy Spirit: Have mercy upon us and forgive us our sins
for Your Son's sake, whom You have made our Mediator
according to Your wonderful counsels; and please guide and
sanctify us by Your Holy Spirit, who has been poured out upon
Your Church. Grant that we may truly know and praise You
today and throughout eternity! Amen.
- based on a prayer of Philip Melanchthon,
Reformer, 16th century
