It has just struck me that this is very similar to the prayer that opened
the Communion service in the 1928 Episcopal prayer book (I don't know if
it's still used in the modrunized version)-- anyhow it's one of my
favorites----
Almighty God, unto whom all hearts are open, all desires known, and from
whom no secrets are hid, cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the
inspiration of Thy holy spirit, that we may perfectly love Thee and worthily
magnify Thy holy name.
