Jeremy Taylor: A Prayer for a Holy Life

O do to your servant as you used to do to those that love your name; let your truth comfort me, your mercy deliver me, your staff support me, your grace sanctify my sorrow, and your goodness pardon all my sins, your angels guide me with safety in this shadow of death, and your most holy spirit lead me into the land of righteousness, for your name’s sake, which is so comfortable, and for Jesus Christ his sake, our dearest Lord and most gracious Savior. Amen.

—Jeremy Taylor, Holy Dying
