And may the Lord of peace himself
give you
peace continually,
in every way.
The Lord be with you all.
‘Greetings from Paul’ – this I write in my hand.
(This is a sign in every letter.)
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
O Love, O God who created me, in your love recreate me.
O Love, who redeemed me,
fill up in me whatever part of your love
has fallen into neglect within me.
O Love, O God, who first loved me,
grant that with my whole heart,
and with my whole soul,
and with my whole strength,
I may love you.
Gertrude the Great
