A Prayer for Enlightenment St Alcuin of York (735-804)

Eternal light, shine into our hearts, Eternal Goodness, deliver us from evil, Eternal Power, be our support, Eternal Wisdom, scatter the darkness of our ignorance, Eternal Pity, have mercy on us; that with all our heart and mind and soul and strength, we may seek Your Face and be brought by Your infinite mercy to Your Holy Presence; through Jesus Christ, our Lord Amen.

 Prayer for Enlightenment

Almighty, eternal, just and merciful God, grant us in our misery the grace to do for You alone what we know You want us to do and always to desire what pleases You. Thus, inwardly cleansed, interiorly enlightened and inflamed by the fire of the Holy Spirit, may we be able to follow in the footprints of Your beloved Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. And, by Your grace alone, may we make our way to You, Most High, Who live and rule in perfect Trinity and simple Unity and are glorified God all-powerful forever and ever. Amen.
