Almighty God, whom truly to know is
everlasting life: Grant us so perfectly to know your Son Jesus Christ to
be the way, the truth, and the life, that we may steadfastly follow his
steps in the way that leads to eternal life; through Jesus Christ your
Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy
Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
O God,
whose Son Jesus is the good shepherd of your people: Grant that when we
hear his voice we may know him who calls us each by name, and follow
where he leads; who, with you and the Holy Spirit, lives and reigns, one
God, for ever and ever. Amen.
O God,
whose blessed Son made himself known to his disciples in the breaking
of bread: Open the eyes of our faith, that we may behold him in all his
redeeming work; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy
Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
