A Prayer to Begin the Day from John R W Stott

O Lord Jesus Christ, who didst build thy Church upon the rock, that even the gates of hell might not prevail against it: Have mercy on the churches of this land, and especially upon our own parish church in which we serve. Make the worship of thy people acceptable in thy sight; sweeten our fellowship with brotherly love; and unite us in a continuous, bold and effective witness to our parish, for the spread of thy kingdom and the glory of thy name (slightly edited).
