The Lutheran Church Missouri Synod published a prayerbook, called the Treasury of Daily Prayer. In this book are the offices of Morning and Evening prayer and prayers for each day.
On Thursday the prayer is for the right use of the Sacrament of the Altar, or the Lord's Supper. I found this part of the prayer very strengthening.
"We implore You, O Lord, for our altar, that it may ever be a place where the medicine of eternal life, the forgiveness of our sins, strengthens us in body and soul; that disbelief and impenitence may stay far from all who come there so that they may not eat and drink to their own judgment." TDP pg. 1308.
