O Gott, mein Gott! Dies sind Deine schwachen Diener, Deine ergebenen Knechte und Mägde, die sich niederbeugen vor Deinem erhabenen Wort, sich demütigen an Deiner strahlenden Schwelle und Deine Einheit bezeugen, die die Sonne in ihrem Mittagsglanz erstrahlen ließ. Sie lauschen dem Ruf, den Du aus Deinem verborgenen Reich erhebst, und bebenden Herzens, voll Liebe und Entzücken antworten sie darauf.

O Herr, lass auf sie alle die Schauer Deines Erbarmens, die Wasser Deiner Gnade herabregnen. Lass sie zu herrlichen Pflanzen des Himmelsgartens heranwachsen. Gib, dass dieser Garten unter den reichen Wolken Deiner Gnadengaben und aus den tiefen Wassern Deiner unendlichen Güte allezeit frisch und prächtig grüne und blühe.

Du bist wahrlich der Mächtige, der Erhabene, der Gewaltige, Der allein in den Himmeln und auf Erden unverwandelt bleibt. Es ist kein Gott außer Dir, dem Herrn offenbarer Zeichen und Beweise.
