Tune: Beatitudo
('O for a closer walk with God')
*********
Almighty God, you have promised
Us your grace to assist
And to hear prayers made in Christ's name
He ever stays the same
We pray what we have asked here now
That you will answer how
Most effectively for glory
That shall be yours, all see
For you have inspired us aright
To ask what in your sight
Is pleasing to you, so faithful
We pray in Christ's name all

My father-in-law was a C of E vicar a lovely fella .. used to tell me off for swearing amongst other things ..
Thanks N.
Now I know some clergy - I'm sure they only work one day a week, Sundays - as the old joke goes! lol.
I always wondered what it would be like if everyone got everything they asked for. Good write Orchi
Thanks SB. Probably hellish, if all got what they WANT - meaning selfishly, etc. But we can pursue what we NEED.
Good write Orchi shame he isn't there!

Thanks Gold. I would say he is there, though easy to say if all is going on cosily.
