I earnestly beg Thee, O Lord my God, by Thy most glorious
Name whereby Thy sovereignty hath been established and the tokens of Thy might
have been manifested, and whereby the oceans of life and of holy ecstasy have
surged for the reviving of the mouldering bones of all Thy creatures and for
the stirring of the limbs of such as have embraced Thy Cause—I earnestly beg
Thee to graciously ordain for us the good of this world and of the next, to
enable us to gain admission into the court of Thy mercy and loving-kindness and
to kindle in our hearts the fire of joy and ecstasy in such wise that the
hearts of all men may thereby be attracted.
Verily Thou art the All-Powerful, the Protector, the
Almighty, the Self-Subsisting.
