Our Father, blessed be your name forever and ever. Oh that we praised you more! We must confess we never bless you as we ought, and our life is far too full of murmuring, or at the best too full of self-seeking, for even in prayer we may do this; and there is too little of lauding, and adoring, and praising, and magnifying, and singing the high praises of the Lord.
Oh God, will you teach us to begin the music of heaven! Grant us grace to have many rehearsals of the eternal Hallelujah.
