Collect
Gracious God,
you called your servant Swithin
to be a loyal adviser to his king
and a faithful leader of his people;
give us courage
to speak boldly in your name
and follow humbly where you lead;
through Jesus Christ our Saviour.
Amen.
Prayer
Our Father,
your kingdom come
on earth as in heaven.
God our life,
be with us through this day,
whether or not it brings us joy.
Help us when evening comes to recall one benefit,
for which to give you thanks.
Amen.
