Ignatius of Loyola

Teach us, good Lord, to serve you as you deserve:
To give and not count the cost
To fight and not heed the wounds
To toil and not seek for rest
To labor and not to ask for any reward
save that of knowing that we do your will;
Through Jesus Christ our Lord
Ignatius of Loyola

3 Come, let us tell of the Lord’s greatness;
let us exalt his name together.
4 I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me.
He freed me from all my fears.
5 Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy;
no shadow of shame will darken their faces.
6 In my desperation I prayed, and the Lord listened;
he saved me from all my troubles.
7 For the angel of the Lord is a guard;
he surrounds and defends all who fear him.
8 Taste and see that the Lord is good.
Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him!Psalm 34 New Living Translation
