The Collect for Thirteenth Sunday After Pentecost

This Sunday's Collect is a great prayer!

Almighty and everlasting God, who art always
more ready to hear than we are to pray, and
art wont to give more than either we desire or
deserve, pour down upon us the abundance of thy
mercy, forgiving us those things whereof our
conscience is afraid, and giving us those good things
which we are not worthy to ask, but through the
merits and mediation of Jesus Christ thy Son, our
Lord.  Amen.
 
(From the Book of Common Prayer, John Wesley's The Sunday Service)
