Prayer of St Anselm

O Lord my God.
Teach my heart this day
where and how to find you.
You have made me and re-made me,
and you have bestowed on me
all the good things I possess,
and still I do not know you.
I have not yet done
that for which I was made.
Teach me to seek you,
for I cannot seek you
unless you teach me,
or find you
unless you show yourself to me.
Let me seek you in my desire;
let me desire you in my seeking.
Let me find you by loving you;
let me love you when I find you.

[odhiambo]

"O Father,
 your power is greater than all powers.
O Son,
 under your leadership we cannot fear anything.
O Spirit,
 under your protection there is nothing we cannot overcome"
