The Prayer.
Almighty God and heavenly Father, seeing hitherto we have been too deaf, in hearkening to so many exhortations, as also to those threatenings whereby thou hast more sharply pricked us forwards to repentance; grant that this our obstinacy may not always remain in us, but that in the end we may subject our selves unto thee; and that not by fits, or for a moment, but with a constant resolution, that we may for ever give our selves wholly to thy service, and that we may also so glorify thy name, that in the end we may attain that glory, which thou hast purchased for us, by the blood of thine only Son, Jesus Christ. Amen.
