Sa matag adlaw
Said before the Liturgy of the Hours: asks the Lord to cleanse the heart of wandering thoughts, so that the Office is prayed worthily, attentively and devoutly.
From the Community’s prayer book.
Lord, open my mouth to bless Your Holy Name. Cleanse my heart from all vain, evil and wandering thoughts.
Enlighten my understanding, enkindle my affections, so that I may worthily, attentively and devoutly recite the Divine Office in the presence of Your Divine Majesty.
Lord, in union with the intentions of our Lord Jesus Christ while He was on earth, and the intentions of the Blessed Mother, I offer this hour to You. Lord, use our lips so that we may together praise Your Holy Name. Amen.
