Oxford Group surrender prayers
O God, if there be a God, take command of my life; I cannot manage it myself.
O Lord, manage me, for I cannot manage myself.
O God, if there is a God, take charge of my life.
O God, if there be a God, send me help now because I need it.
Ernest Renan (1823-1892)
"The prayer of the agnostic: "O God, if there is a God, save my soul if I have a soul."
Evelyn Waugh, Brideshead Revisited
'O God, if there is a God, forgive him his sins, if there is such a thing as sin.'
