A Prayer for This Day

+


Heavenly Father, whose blessed Son was revealed 
to destroy the works of the devil
and to make us the children of God and heirs of eternal life
grant that we, having this hope,
may purify ourselves even as he is pure:
that when he shall appear in power and great glory
we may be made like him
in his eternal and glorious kingdom
where he is alive and reigns with you
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.
