From the Lindisfarne Litany, (c) 1996 Paul E Strid:
Most High and Glorious,
Lowly and Generous,
Sweet God, Strong and Swift to Save,
By your joy in making all things,
By your passion in saving all things,
By your grace in keeping all things,
Hear the prayers of your servants,
Give ear to the prayers of your friends,
Hearken to the voice of those who love you,
And show mercy to those who know not your love;
Fashion anew your image in us,
Keep us by your tender love,
Save us and guide us safely home;
For your own sake, Who pity mortal flesh,
For your own dear sake, Who took our mortal flesh,
For your mercy's sake, Who are the Life of mortal flesh,
Holy and Glorious, Gracious Three,
Save us and guide us safely home,
Save us and guide us safely home.
Amen.
