[MajestyJo]

Let’s pause for a moment to call to mind
that we are in God’s presence.

(pause…)

An English saint called Richard of Chichester
(whose feastday it is tomorrow)
wrote a short prayer that can easily be
memorised and used quietly at different
times throughout the day. The words of
his prayer have been set to music, and
the song ‘Day by day’ is found on the
album of the musical, ‘Godspel’. We use
his words as our prayer today:

Let us pray:

Jesus, Friend and Brother,
may we know you more clearly,
love you more dearly,
and follow you more nearly,
day by day.

Amen.
