set free from worldly things“Almighty, ever gracious Father,
since all my salvation depends upon
my having truly understood your holy Word,
therefore grant that my heart
be set free from worldly things
so that I may with all diligence and faith
hear and apprehend your holy Word.
Do this that I may thereby
understand your gracious will,
and in all sincerity live according to the same,
to your praise and glory,
through our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.”
- John Calvin
