O God, you have prepared for those who love you such good things
As surpass our understanding: Pour into our hearts such love towards
you, that we, loving you in all things and above all things, may obtain
your promises, which exceed all that we can desire; through Jesus
Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one
God, for ever and ever. Amen.
