O Lord Jesus Christ, who hast said, Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you, mercifully attend to our supplication, and grant us the divine gift of Thy charity, that we may ever love Thee with our whole heart, and never desist from Thy praise.

Make us, O Lord, to have a perpetual fear and love of Thy holy Name, for Thou never failest to govern those whom Thou dost solidly establish in Thy love; who livest and reignest world without end. Amen.
