May The Eleventh

GRANT me, O Lord, the royalty of inward happiness, and the serenity which comes from living close to Thee.
Daily renew in me the sense of joy, and let the Eternal Spirit of the Father dwell in my soul and body, filling every corner of my heart with light and grace, so that, bearing about with me the infection of a good courage, I may be a difuser of life, and may meet all ills and cross accidents with gallant and high-hearted happiness, giving Thee thanks always for all things - Amen.
