A prayer to begin the Day from Frederick B. Macnutt

O Holy Spirit the Comforter, Spirit of Jesus, come Thou upon us and dwell within us.  Not of ourselves, but of Thee is our life.  Teach us that we may know; cleanse us and purify us within; strengthen us to persevere, lest we fall away from Thee.  Come into us, Thou Who art already there, that by Thine arrival again Thou mayest enter into Thy possession anew.  And out of worldly death in which we languish create in us the life that shall make us as Thou art, through inward unity in which we are one with Thee.  Come, then, eternal Spirit, Who with the Father and the Son art one God, and abide with us for ever.
