John Wesley's Covenant Prayer

 

O Lord God, holy Father, who has called us through Christ to join in this gracious covenant, we take upon ourselves with the joy the yoke of obedience, and engage ourselves, for love of You, to seek and do Your perfect will. We are no longer our own, but Yours.
 
We are no longer our own, but Yours. Put us to what you will, rank us with who you will; put us to doing, put us to suffering; let us be employed for You or laid aside for You, exalted for You or brought low for You; let us be full, let us be empty; let us have all things, let us have nothing. We freely and heartily yield all things to Your pleasure and disposal.
 
And now, O glorious and blessed God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, You are ours, and we are Yours. So be it.
 
And the covenant which we have made on earth, let it be ratified in heaven.
 
Amen
