Written by Thomas Cranmer (1489-1556), a theologian, leader of the English reformation, and Archbishop of Canterbury. This is from the Book of Common Prayer.
Blessed Lord, who hast caused all Holy Scriptures to be written for our learning; Grant that we may in such wise hear them, read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them, that by patience and comfort of thy holy Word, we may embrace, and ever hold fast, the blessed hope of everlasting life, which thou hast given us in our Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. the grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of the Lord endures forever. [1 Peter 1:24-25].
