A prayer
after hearing or reading Scripture
Good Jesus, as you have graciously allowed me here to drink in the sweetness of your Word, so at the last, I pray, You will bring me into your presence, that I may listen to your voice which is the source of all wisdom, and watch your face forever.
~ written by The Venerable Bede (673/3 – 735),
from 2000 Years of Prayer compiled by Michael Counsell, p. 87
