Prayer for Divine Comfort

By Thomas à KempisSource: Thomas à Kempis - The Imitation of Christ, Book III (Public Domain)63 words

Lord, all good things are Thine, and Thou alone art to be praised above all things. Without Thee I can do nothing, and whatever I have received without Thee is good for nothing. All things fail me but Thou alone remainest, whose comfort doth support me. Forsake not then what Thou hast begun in me, but perfect that which belongeth to Thy honor.
