An Adapted Prayer of St. Chrysostom
Almighty God, who hast given us grace at this time with one accord to make our common supplications unto thee; and dost promise, that when two or three are gathered together in thy Name thou wilt grant their requests. There are more than two to three of us, O Triune God, in this forsaken exile of Anglicanism.
Hear us, O LORD, we few Anglicans in the wilderness, we exiles in the Babylonian Captivity. Everywhere we turn, we find opposition. With Psalm 38 in view, O LORD, do not rebuke us in thy anger nor discipline us in thy wrath. Thy arrows have pierced us and our leaders in the West. Thy hand has come down upon us. Our leaders are compromised by their educations. Righteousness is diminished amongst us. (Ps.12.1-3)
With Psalm 18 in view, O LORD, remember us. “For who is God besides the LORD? And who is the Rock except our God?” Thou hast armed us with strength. Thou hast trained us for battle.
Light a mighty and effulgent light amongst us, we forlorn and sorrowing Anglicans, and lighten our darkness, we beseech thee.
Fulfil now, O Lord, the desires and petitions of thy servants, as may be most expedient for them.
Grant that two or three of us may agree. Grant that we may unite, for the sake of Thy Son.
Grant us in this world knowledge of thy truth, and in the world to come life everlasting, through Jesus Christ our only Savior, LORD, Rock and Refuge, Amen.
