For Wisdom 3

O GOD, the Searcher of deeds and hearts, to Whom every thought of man maketh confession: Strengthen the weakness of our minds by the might of Thy blessing, that we. may think such things as be just and holy, and by a good life pay our faithful vows to Thee, our Lord God; through Jesus Christ, Thy Son, our Lord, who livest and reignest with the Father and the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen  (Oremus, 1925, p.38).
