Prayer For Salvation

My God, since I believe that you are and that you are a rewarder of those who seek you, their reward exceeding great, I come to you for the salvation of my soul, the outcome of my faith. I am but dust and ashes and fear to fall into the hands of the living God. With fear and trembling I work out my salvation, striving for justice, self-control and charity. I believe your mercy is above all your works, your promise of salvation is to those who persevere and perfect love casts out fear. Have mercy on me, a sinner, through Jesus Christ my saviour. Amen.
