assist us with Thy Grace, that we may continue in that holy fellowship, and do all such good works as Thou hast prepared for us to walk in; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to Whom, with Thee and the Holy Ghost, be all honour and glory, world without end. Amen.

By the Minister and the congregation.

Glory be to God on high, and in earth peace, good will towards men. We praise Thee, we bless Thee, we worship Thee, we glorify Thee, we give thanks to Thee for Thy great glory, O Lord God, heavenly King, God the Father Almighty.

O Lord, the only-begotten Son Jesu Christ; O Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father, That takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us. Thou That takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us. Thou That takest away the sins of the world, receive our prayer. Thou That sittest at the right hand of God the Father, have mercy upon us.

For Thou only art holy; Thou only art, the Lord; Thou only, O Christ, with the Holy Ghost, art Most High in the glory of God the Father. Amen.

The blessing by the Minister:

The peace of God, which passeth all under

standing, keep your hearts and minds in the knowledge and love of God, and of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord: and the blessing of God Almighty, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, be amongst you, and remain with you always. Amen.

A short prayer by the communicant after the blessing.

By the merit of that sacrifice which we have now commemorated, pardon, good Lord, the many defects and infirmities that have accompanied our performance of this holy duty.

And as we have made a new dedication of ourselves to Thee; so be Thou graciously pleased to receive us for Thine own; and defend us evermore with Thy heavenly grace, that we may continue Thine for ever, and daily increase in Thy holy Spirit more and more, till we come to Thine everlasting kingdom. Amen.

A psalm and prayer to be used in private, after we are returned home from the Lord's table. The Lord is my Shepherd: therefore can I lack nothing.

He shall feed me in a green pasture, and lead me forth beside the waters of comfort.

He shall convert my soul, and bring me forth

into the paths of righteousness for His Name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff comfort

me.

Thou shalt prepare a table before me against them that trouble me: Thou hast anointed my head with oil, and my cup shall be full.

But Thy loving-kindness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever".

Praise the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, praise His holy Name.

Praise the Lord, O my soul; and forget not all His benefits;

Who forgiveth all thy sin, and healeth all thine infirmities.

Who saveth thy life from destruction, and crowneth thee with mercy and loving-kindness. Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things, making thee young and lusty as an eagle '.

The Lord is full of compassion and mercy, long-suffering, and of great goodness %. '.'

He sent redemption unto His people; He hath commanded His covenant for ever: holy and reverend is His name. 1, 40

a Psal. xxiii. b Psal. ciii. 1—5. Ibid. 8. Psal. cxi. 9.

He hath given meat unto them that fear Him: He shall ever be mindful of His covenant.

He rained down manna also upon them for to eat; and gave them food from heaven.

So man did eat angels' food; for He sent them meat enough.

O that men would therefore praise the Lord for His goodness, and declare the wonders that He doeth for the children of men.

For He satisfieth the empty soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.

He brought them out of darkness, and out of the shadow of death; and brake their bonds in sunder '.

He sent His word, and healed them; and they were saved from their destruction".

I will magnify Thee, O God, my King; and I will praise Thy Name for ever and ever.

Every day will I give thanks unto Thee, and praise Thy Name for ever and ever".

One generation shall praise Thy works unto another; and declare Thy power'.

The memorial of Thine abundant kindness shall be shewed, and men shall sing of Thy righteousness*.

All Thy works praise Thee, O Lord; and Thy saints give thanks unto Thee'.

For Thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by Thy blood, out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation.

Unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood, And hath made us kings and priests unto God and His Father; to Him be glory and dominion for ever and ever h.

Worthy is the Lamb That was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing'.

Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto Him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever *.

Accept O Lord, I beseech Thee, mine unfeigned thanks and praises to Thy divine Majesty, for the renewed instances of Thine incomprehensible love and goodness vouchsafeḍ to me this day.

Lord, what is man, that Thou shouldst so regard Him, as to give Thine only begotten Son to be the propitiation for our sins: and what am I, Thy most unworthy creature, that Thou shouldst permit me to have a part in that most h Rev. i. 5, 6.
