O my God, my Lord and my Master! I have
detached myself from my kindred and
have sought through Thee to become independent
of all that dwell on earth and ever ready to
receive that which is praiseworthy in Thy sight.
Bestow on me such good as will make me independent
of aught else but Thee, and grant me an
ampler share of Thy boundless favors. Verily,
Thou art the Lord of grace abounding.
