Help me, Lord to remember that religion is not to be confined to church or closet, nor exercised only in prayer and meditation, but that everywhere I am in your presence. So my every word and action have a moral content.

Susanna Wesley (1669-1742)
Mother of John and Charles Wesley

Lord you have given so much to me,
Give one thing more – a grateful heart;
Not thankful when it pleases me,
As if your blessings had spare days;
But such a heart whose very pulse may be your praise.

George Herbert (1593-1633)

Speak, Lord, for your servant hears.

Grant us ears to hear,

Eyes to see

Wills to obey,

Hearts to love;

Then declare what you will,

Reveal what you will,

Command what you will,

Demand what you will.

Christina Rossetti (1830-1894)
