A Prayer of Saint Thomas Aquinas

Give me, O Lord God, a watchful heart which no vain thoughts can distract from you. Give me a generous heart which no unworthy affection can draw downward. Give me an upright heart which no dishonourable intention can lead away from you. Give me a firm heart which no hardship can crush. Give me a free heart which no unruly emotion can claim for its own; Through Christ our Lord.
Amen
