Mr. Nalton's Prayer, Iuly 20. 1662. at Foster-lane.
Eternal, most Mighty, and most glorious Lord God. Thou a•t God alone, and besides thee there is no Saviour or Helper; our strength stands in thy Name, who hast made both Heaven and Earth: of our selves we are able to do nothing that is pleasing in thy sight: we can pollute thy name, but we cannot honour thy name: we can run away from thee, but we cannot run unto thee, unless thou dost powerfully draw us by thy Spirit: we can grieve thy spirit, but we cannot grieve for grieving of thy spirit.
ETernal, most Mighty, and most glorious Lord God. Thou a•t God alone, and besides thee there is no Saviour or Helper; our strength stands in thy Name, who hast made both Heaven and Earth: of our selves we are able to do nothing that is pleasing in thy sight: we can pollute thy name, but we cannot honor thy name: we can run away from thee, but we cannot run unto thee, unlesse thou dost powerfully draw us by thy Spirit: we can grieve thy spirit, but we cannot grieve for grieving of thy spirit.
Oh let thy strength be manifested in our weakness, look upon us with the favour thou bearest to thy Children. Enter not into judgement with thy servants, for we cannot answer thee one of a thousand, not one thought of a thousand thoughts, not one word of a thousand words.
