Prayer for when you need to ‘do the right thing’

A Prayer for Help in Right Action

Breathe in me, O Holy Spirit, that my thoughts may all be holy.

Act in me, O Holy Spirit, that my work too, may be holy.

Draw my heart, O Holy Spirit, that I love but what is holy.

Stengthen me, O Holy Spirit, to defend all that is holy.

Guard me, then, O Holy ‘Spirit, that I always may be holy.

Amen.

– St. Augustine
