Praying the Psalms with Augustine and Friends

Thank you for joining us as we learn to pray the Psalms with Augustine and his friends. The end of our introduction is also the beginning of our prayer. We commence with a prayer from Augustine. We turn to the Lord God, the Father Almighty, and with pure hearts offer to him, as far as we are able, great and true thanks, with all our hearts praying for his exceeding kindness, that of his good pleasure he would be willing to hear our prayers, that by his power he would drive out the enemy from our deeds and thoughts, that he would increase our faith, guide our understanding, give us spiritual thoughts, and lead us to enjoy him, through Jesus Christ his Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
