… Let angels sing for sinner repenting, prodigals restored,
backsliders reclaimed, Satan’s captives released,
blind eyes opened, broken hearts bound up,
the despondent cheered, the self-righteous stripped,
the formalist driven from a refuge of lies,
the ignorant enlightened,
and saint built up in their holy faith.
I ask great things of a great God
the valley of vision: a collection of puritan prayers and devotions (p. 6).
