I have three:
The Lord's Prayer
The collect for purity - CoE Eucharist
Almighty God, to you all hearts are open, all desires known, and from you no secrets are hid: Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love you, and worthily magnify your holy Name; through Christ our Lord. AMEN
The collect for Wednesday morning prayer CoE Common Worship
Almighty and everlasting God, we thank you that you have brought us safely to the beginning of this day. Keep us from falling into sin or running into danger, order us in all our doings and guide us to do always what is righteous in your sight; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

I should have mentioned where I first came across Philaret's prayer -- it was recommended by Presiding Bishop Frank T. Griswold during the difficult General Convention of 2003. I've prayed it every morning since then.
