A Prayer for the Virtues--Thomas Aquinas

O Almighty and all-knowing God, without beginning or end, who art the giver, preserver, and rewarder of all virtue:
Grant me to stand firm on the solid foundation of faith, be protected by the invincible shield of hope, and be adorned by the nuptial garment of charity;
Grant me by justice to obey thee, by prudence to resist the crafts of the Devil, by temperance to hold to moderation, by fortitude to bear adversity with patience;
Grant that the goods that I have I may share liberally with those who have not, and the good that I do not have I may seek with humility from those who have;
Grant that I may truly recognize the guilt of the evil I have done, and bear with equanimity the punishments I have deserved; that I may never lust after the goods of my neighbor, but always give thanks to thee for all thy good gifts.
Plant in me, O Lord, all thy virtues, that in divine matters I might be devout, in human affairs wise, and in the proper needs of the flesh onerous to no one.
And grant that I may never rush to do things hastily, nor balk to do things demanding, so that I neither yearn for things too soon, nor desert things before they are finished.
Amen.
