Grant that we may serve you wholeheartedly, in order that we may feel the effect of your propitiation

Calvin University

"Look upon us, O God, Creator and ruler of all things, and, that we may feel the working of your mercy, grant that we may serve you with all our heart.  Through".

"Respice nos, rerum omnium deus creator et rector, et, ut tuae propitiationis sentiamus effectum, toto nos tribue tibi corde servire.  Per".

     Collect, Twenty-Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time, Roman missal.  According to Corpus orationum no. 5110, this was no. 1045 in the early 7th-century "Leonine" or Veronese sacramentary (according to Mohlberg (1956) dated by Rule in 1909 (supposedly p. 79, but in any case no. 1045 falls at the head of XXVIIII.xiiii) to 440-461 (Leo I), Chavasse in 1950 to 537/555 (Virgilius), and Bourque in 1948 to 557/560 or after), but completely abandoned after that until selected for the current (post-Vatican II) Missal.  Universalis completely misses the crucial purpose clause:

"Almighty God, our creator and guide, may we serve you with all our heart and know your forgiveness in our lives. . . . through".
