April The Twenty-Second

SHOW Thyself, O Lord, and have pity on Thy child, and bring his steps into the way of peace.
Thou that knowest our thoughts, make Thyself known to our hearts; Thou that art from everlasting, let us behond Thy truth. Hast Thou not made our souls in Thy likeness? Take away stain from the glass, and let us behold in it Thine image. When Thou willest, Thy word goeth forth; Thou breathest forth Thy love, and our souls are joined to Thee. Take away from me shame and rebuke; renew in me Thy strength, and show me the way to peace. Turn me again, and I shall be turned; take away the darkness which hideth Thee, and in the light of the living God let me see light - Amen.

- ROWLAND WILLIAMS
