Prevent us, O Lord
Language: English
Prevent us, O Lord, in all our doings with thy most gracious favour, and further us with thy continual help. That in all our works begun, continued, and ended in thee, we may glorify thy holy name, and finally by thy mercy obtain everlasting life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
