Ephesians 3
With St. Paul, we kneel before You, Father,
from whom every family in Heaven and on earth is named,
that You may grant us,
in accord with the riches of Your glory,
to be strengthened with power
through Your Spirit
in our inner self,
and that Christ may dwell in our hearts
through faith,
so that we, rooted and grounded in love,
may have strength to comprehend all with the holy ones:
what is the breadth and length and height and depth,
and to know the love of Christ that surpasses all knowledge,
so that we may be filled with all the fullness of God.
Now, Father, to You who are able to accomplish
far more than all we ask or imagine,
by Your power at work within us,
to You be glory in the Church
and in Christ Jesus
to all generations,
forever and ever.
Amen.
