O Lord, let Thy Will be done, Thy work be accomplished. Fortify our devotion, increase our surrender, give us light upon the path. We erect Thee within us as our supreme Master that Thou mayst become supreme Master of all the earth.
Our speech is still ignorant: enlighten it.
Our aspiration is still imperfect: purify it.
Our action is still powerless: make it effective.
O Lord, the earth groans and suffers; chaos has made this world its abode.
The darkness is so deep that Thou alone canst dispel it. Come, manifest Thyself, that Thy work may be accomplished.
