Please Let Us Have Meek And Humble Minds

Before we report anything to you,
Father,
you already know our hearts.

Please allow us
to feel that this is a time
when heaven is observing everything
about us.

Oh Father! You have gone through
a historical course of such toil.
Today please appear
right in front of us
and groom us through new words.

Please relate to us with a new heart.
We intend to sweep away
every unfaithful aspect,
and with childlike minds
offer everything we have
before you, our Father,
whom we respect.

We lay down before you, Father,
all the rituals, ideologies and concepts
of the world,
and we ask that you will allow us
to have meek, humble minds
like those of children.

May we have humble minds
which are able to be molded
as you would mold us,
and since we seek
to offer ourselves before you,
please accept us.
May the triune God act.

We earnestly hope and pray
that you will allow this place
where we are bowing
to you with rejoicing hearts,
guarded by heavenly forces and angels,
to become an altar
of wondrous blessing
which can lead our whole lives
to victory.

We have left everything up to you.
Please let us open our hearts
and all the ideologies we have
before you.

We hope that in that way
you will allow us to be able
to change everything we have
into your things.

We have prayed
in the name of the Lord. Amen.
