"Lord, Thou knowest what is best for us, let this or that be done, as Thou pleasest.
"Give what Thou wilt, and how much Thou wilt, and when Thou wilt.
"Deal with me as Thou thinkest good, and as best pleaseth Thee, and is most for Thy honour.
"Set me where Thou wilt, and deal with me in all things just as Thou wilt.
"I am in Thy hand: turn me round, and turn me back again, as Thou shalt please.
"Behold, I am Thy servant, prepared for all things: for I desire not to live unto myself, but unto Thee, and O that I could do it worthily and perfectly!"
A Prayer that the will of God may be fulfilled.
3. O most merciful Jesus, grant to me Thy grace, that it may be with me, and work with me, and continue with me even to the end.
Grant that I may always desire and will that which is to Thee most acceptable, and most dear.
Let Thy will be mine, and let my will ever follow Thine, and agree perfectly with it.
Let my will be all one with Thy will, and let me not be able to will, or forego anything, but what Thou willest or dost not will.
4. Grant that I may die to all things that are in the world, and for Thy sake love to be contemned, and not known in this generation.
Grant to me above all things to desire to rest in Thee, and in Thee to have my heart at peace.
