Prayer of Clement of Alexandria (c.150–c.215) Be kind to your little children, Lord. Be a gentle teacher, patient with our weakness and stupidity. And give us the strength and discernment to do what you tell us, and so grow in your likeness.May we all live in the peace that comes from you. May we journey towards your city, sailing through the waters of sin untouched by the waves, borne serenely along by the Holy Spirit.Night and day may we give you praise and thanks, because you have shown us that all things belong to you, and all blessings are gifts from you.To you, the essence of wisdom, the foundation of truth, be glory for evermore.Amen.
