Forsomuch as thou of thy infinite goodness (O most gracious and merciful God) hast determined to dwell perpetually in the congregation of the faithful (which is the Church that Christ hath redeemed with his precious blood) we humbly beseech thee never to forget this thy most loving promise. For our earnest request is to have thy resting place abide in us, and that thou wouldest have an holy and well furnished habitation in our hearts through faith. As therefore we mistrust not but thou wilt keep this thy sacred covenant firm and steadfast, so we heartily desire thee to vouchsafe that we on our part may not swerve therefrom, but follow and accomplish to the uttermost those testimonies of thy holy will, ⟨image 229⟩which thou hast thought good to teach us in thy sacred scriptures, so that the ministers of thy Sacraments, the faithful people, and all the estates and degrees of thy elect servants, may shine in true godliness and most sincere virtues, to the honour of thy glorious name, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
