Occasional Prayers

O Holy Spirit of the living God, proceeding from the Father and the Son, Spirit of truth and love, the Lord and Giver of life: Sanctify with thy presence this place of prayer.
Here may the people be drawn into thy fellowship and conquered by thy love; here may the ignorant learn the way of truth, the sinful find pardon, and the weary rest; here may the members of thy holy Church be strengthened in the bond of peace and righteousness of life, manfully to confess the faith of Christ crucified.
Fulfill the prayers of those who worship here, hallow their praises and enrich their lives; unite them in the service of the kingdom which hath no end, that in all things and by all men thy name may be adored; who with the Father and the Son livest and reignest, one God, world without end.
