A Prayer for Ash Wednesday 2007

O Lord and heavenly Father, who has given unto us your people the true bread that comes down from heaven, even your Son, Jesus Christ, grant that throughout this Lent our souls may be so fed by him that we may continually live in him and he in us; and that day by day we may be renewed in spirit by the power of his endless life, who gave himself for us and now lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever.

Amen


Frederick B. MacNutt ( 1873-1949)
