Prayer to Start the Week

From "Christian Prayers" (1556):

O God, make perfect my love toward Thee
and to my Redeemer and Justifier;
give me a true and unfeigned love of all virtue and godliness;

Increase in me strength and victory against all temptations
and assaults of the flesh, the world, and the devil,
that according to Thy promise I be never further proved or
tempted than thou wilt give me strength to overcome;

Give me grace to keep a good conscience;
give me a pure heart and mind,
and renew a right spirit within me. Amen.
