SEND OUT THY LIGHT --- Psalm 43:3.
"O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me, let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles." --- Psalm 43:3.
Divine Answer: "The path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day." --- Proverbs 4:18.
The wiser we are in our own conceits, the more negligent are we in prayer, the more destitute of true wisdom and faith: for the Lord gives sight only to the blind, and to the babes, who pray for it. Therefore, the deepest humblings go before the greatest blessings.
O my blessed Saviour, since I am always blind and ignorant of myself, if I am not guided by thine eyes, I desire always to look up to thee, and do every thing under thy direction.
Prevent me, lest I harbour pride,
Lest I in my strength confide;
Show me my weakness; let me see
I have my power, my all, from thee.
Enrich me always with thy love,
My kind protector ever prove;
The signet put upon my breast,
And let thy Spirit on me rest.
Assist and teach me how to pray,
Incline my nature to obey;
What thou abhorrest let me flee,
And only love what pleases thee.
Oh may I never do my will,
But thine, and only thine, fulfil;
Let all my time, and all my ways
Be spent and ended to thy praise.
