The Prayer.
Almighty God, seeing thou hast been pleased so familiarly to manifest thine own self unto us, not only by thy Law and Prophets, but also by thine only Son; so as the knowledge of thy truth ought now to take deep rooting in us: grant we may continue steadfast and Immovable in this thine holy calling, profiting therein daily more and more, and always hastening to arrive at our desired haven: and so humble us also under thy mighty hand, that we may know thou hast chastised us with thy fatherly rods: moreover, that we may from day to day have such a sanctified use of these thy corrections, till being at the length purged from all our vices, we may attain that glory wherein being possessed of life and immortality, which hath been once manifested to us in thy Son Jesus Christ, we may perfectly magnify thy high and excellent name. Amen.
