Lord, be merciful unto me, heal my soul, for I have sinned.

God be merciful to me a sinner; and grant that I may ever hereafter serve and please thee in newness of life, to the glory of thy holy name, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

An Act of Praise.

O Lord, my good and gracious God, for that thou hast given me being, for that thou hast given me life, for that thou hast given me reason, for that thy bountiful providence hath nourished me, preserved me, directed and governed me:

For my education, for my civil station, for my religion, for all thy gifts of grace, of nature, of fortune:

For my redemption, regeneration in baptism, instruction in the truth: For thy calls to me, for hy repeated calls, for thy continuing to repeat those calls times without number; for thy forDearance and long-suffering, thy long, thy very ong-suffering, after great provocations, upon many great occasions for so many years, and even to this very time:

For every mercy which I have received; for every undertaking in which thou hast prospered me; for every good action which thou hast enapled me to do; for all the enjoyments of this present life, and for all thy promises, and all my hopes of a better life to come:

For the advantage of indulgent and careful parents; for the benefit of gentle teachers; for the kindness of never to be forgotten benefactors; for the pleasure of agreeable friends; for the comfort of peaceable neighbours; for the satisfaction of trusty, frugal, and diligent servants:

For all who have at any time done me good; by their writings, or by their sermons; by their discourse, or by their temper; by their prayers, or by their examples; by their advice, or by their reproofs; by their rewards, or by their punishments; nay, perhaps, even by their causeless censures of me, or unjust proceedings against me:

For all these, and for all other instances of any manner of good done to me, whether with or against my own consent, I praise thee; I bless thee; I humbly adore thee, and most heartily thank thee this day, and desire to continue to bless, adore, and thank thee every day of my life.

What shall I render unto the Lord for all the benefits that he hath done unto me? For all that

mercy which spared me, when I deserved punish ment; for all that patience which did not disdain to wait for my happy change; when so much goodness should at length lead me to repentance.

Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come; thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory, and honour, and power; for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.

A Prayer for Grace.

O Thou without whom I can do nothing, help me to lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset me; all filthiness, and superfluity of naughtiness; the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life; every motion of the body, and of the mind, which is repugnant to thy holy will.

Give me poverty in spirit, that mine may be the kingdom of heaven; godly sorrow, that I may be comforted; meekness, that I may be filled: Grant me to be merciful, that I may obtain mercy; pure in heart, that I may see God; a maker of peace, that I may be called a child of God: Prepare me patiently to undergo revilings, persecutions, and to be evil spoken of, for righteousness sake; that my reward may be great in heaven.

Our Father, &c.
