It is then the duty and the privilege of all your disciples,
O Lord, to be exalted and transfigured with you;
to live in heaven in our
thoughts, motives, aims, desires,
likings, prayers, praises, intercessions,
even while we are in the flesh. . . .
Teach us to set our affection on things above
and to prove that we are yours,
in that our heart is risen with you,
and our life hid in yours.
J.H. Newman
