Collect for the Feast of Saint Giles

Grant, we beseech thee, O Lord,

that the prayers of thy holy Abbot, blessed Giles

may commend us unto thee:

that we, who have no power of ourselves to help ourselves,

may by his advocacy find favour in thy sight.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ,

Your Son, who being God,

lives and reigns with You

in the unity of the same Holy Spirit,

for ever and ever.
