A prayer of Luther

O Lord, I do not deserve a glimpse of heaven, and I am unable with my words to redeem myself from sin, death, the devil and hell. Nevertheless, you have given me your Son Jesus Christ, who is far more precious and dear than heaven, and much stronger than sin, death, the devil, and hell. For this I rejoice, praise, and thank you, O God. Without cost and out of pure grace you have given me this boundless blessing in your dear Son. Through him you take sin, death and hell from me, and do grant me all that do belong to him.

Amen
