Glorified Be Thy Name, O Lord My God! I Beseech

Sources: Prayers And Meditations

Glorified be Thy name, O Lord my God! I beseech Thee by Thy power that

hath encompassed all created things, and by Thy sovereignty that hath

transcended the entire creation, and by Thy Word which was hidden in Thy

wisdom and whereby Thou didst create Thy heaven and Thy earth, both to

enable us to be steadfast in our love for Thee and in our obedience to Thy

pleasure, and to fix our gaze upon Thy face, and celebrate Thy glory.

Empower us, then, O my God, to spread abroad Thy signs among Thy

creatures, and to guard Thy Faith in Thy realm. Thou hast ever existed

independently of the mention of any of Thy creatures, and wilt remain as

Thou hast been for ever and ever.



In Thee I have placed my whole confidence, unto Thee I have turned my

face, to the cord of Thy loving providence I have clung, and towards the

shadow of Thy mercy I have hastened. Cast me not as one disappointed out

of Thy door, O my God, and withhold not from me Thy grace, for Thee alone

do I seek. No God is there beside Thee, the Ever-Forgiving, the Most

Bountiful.



Praise be to Thee, O Thou Who art the Beloved of them that have known

Thee!
