Prayer on the Occasion of Utter Boredom in Church

O Lord, this service is so dull that I think I must be dead. But if it be, Lord, by your grace and favour, that I am not in fact dead – merely stunned into mind-numbing oblivion by the overall tedium and general inconsequentiality of the proceeedings – grant your servant this: grant that the Vicar [Pastor] becomes ‘called up yonder’ to that ‘place which you have prepared for him’ right away … if that be not too forward a request, of course. Amen.
