O LORD, I beseech Thee to renew me inwardly and outwardly, that as Thou wouldest not have me to be hindered by bodily pleasures, Thou mayest make me vigorous with spiritual purpose; and refresh me according to Thy pleasure by things transitory, that Thou mayest grant me rather to cling to things eternal; 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.52).
