St. Augustine: "Shed over me Your light"

"GOD, OUR FATHER, who exhortest us to pray, who also bringest this about, that supplication is made to You; since when we make supplication to You, we live better, and are better: hear me groping in these glooms, and stretch forth Your right hand to me. Shed over me Your light, revoke me from my wanderings; bring Yourself into me that I may likewise return into You. Amen."

~St. Augustine: Soliloquies, Book II, 9.
