From the family prayers of William Wilberforce:

We pray to Thee for all the dark corners of the earth, for all who are suffering under the evils of slavery, or from injustice or cruelty of any kind.

***

Almighty God, may we live above the world, its low concerns and unsatisfying vanities, and may we be still endeavouring to please Thee, to root out every remainder of our natural corruption, and to increase in every Christian grace. May we indeed bear about us the likeness of our Heavenly Father, and be doing good in our generation according to the will of God, until at length thou shalt receive us to Thyself, and make us partakers of those pleasures which are at Thy right hand for evermore.

***

Lord enable us, we beseech Thee, to live above this world, as those who know that life is but a journey towards their everlasting home, and that when we go hence our condition must be unalterably fixed in happiness or misery.  Let us not trifle with the great concern of our everlasting salvation, and let us remember the many advantages and privileges which Thou hast afforded us, and Thine own declaration that it shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for those who enjoyed the privileges of Thy day upon earth, but enjoyed them in vain.
