A Prayer after Sermon.
O LORD our GOD, thou clearly seest and beholdest from Heaven, what hearts we now bring into thy glorious presence from the business of this day, how full of earthliness, deadness, listlessness and unfitness to speak unto thee. We pray thee for CHRIST his sake to possess, quicken and sanctify them by thy blessed Spirit, that they may be ever feeling and fruitful in ⟨p. 138⟩these holy exercises. Make us every day more and more wise, with all thy Saints and elect children unto our eternal salvation in the right understanding, believing and obeying of thy blessed Word, and great mystery of godliness, in JESUS CHRIST our LORD.
