April 6th
Book Three, Chapter 59
That all Hope and confidence is to be Fixed in God Alone

You are the fountain of all good, the height of life, and the depth of wisdom; and to trust in You above all things is the strongest comfort of Your servants.

To You do I lift up my eyes; in You, O my God, Father of mercies, I put my trust.

Bless and sanctify my soul with heavenly benediction, that it may be made Your holy habitation and the seat of Your eternal glory; and let nothing be found in the Temple of Your divinity that may offend the eyes of Your majesty.

According to the greatness of Your goodness and the multitude of Your tender mercies, look down upon me, and give ear to the prayer of Your poor servant, a far-distant exile in the region of the shadow of death.

Protect and preserve the soul of Your poor servant amid so many dangers of this corruptible life, and direct him by Your accompanying grace, along the path of peace, to the land of perpetual light.  Amen.
