“O God, I know that if I do not love You with all my heart, with all my mind, with all my soul and with all my strength, I shall love something else with all my heart and mind and soul and strength. 

 Grant that putting You first in all my lovings I may be liberated from all lesser loves and loyalties, and have You as my first love, my chiefest good and my final joy.”
(George Appleton, Oxford Book of Prayer)
