that Thou wilt give the blessing of mutual charity to those that are at variance, and the true faith to the unbelieving; and finally, that to the faithful departed Thou wilt give eternal rest. Amen.
A DAILY PRAYER FOR HELP
O Lord God Almighty, King of eternal glory, who hast made the heavens and hast broken down the gates of hell, restrain, I beseech Thee, the bold attacks of my enemies, save me from the malice of those who hate me, so that their wickedness prevail not against me. In Thy love for me, and through the intercession of Thy elect, deign so to guide my life that I may walk without offending Thee or being scoffed at by men. Open to me wide the arms of Thy love, and show unto me the multitude of Thy mercy. Grant to me length of days and time for penance, so that the prince of darkness may have no power over my soul. Free me, O Lord, from the hands of mine enemies, visible and invisible, and bring me into the company of Thy saints, that I may praise and glorify Thy Name. Amen.
