Before a Journey 2.

O GOD, WHO didst bring Abraham, Thy son, out of Ur of the Chaldees, and didst preserve him unhurt through all the ways of his pilgrimage: We beseech Thee, that Thou wouldest vouchsafe to keep us Thy servants: be unto us, O Lord, support in our setting out, comfort by the way, a shadow in the heat, a covering in the rain and cold, a chariot in weariness, protection in adversity, a staff in slippery ways and a harbor in shipwreck: that under Thy guidance we may reach in prosperity the place whither we are going and at length return to our home in safety; 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.46).
