The Prayer.
O Lord God, thou Governour of all Nations, and the righteous Iudge of the whole earth, be mercifull unto us and blesse us. Thou makest the Sunne to shine upon all the corners of the habitable world, giving his light both to the good and bad; let the light of thy countenance diffuse it selfe to all Nations, and to all men. Lighten all our darknesses with the beames of thy divine favour, teach thy wayes unto all the people of the earth, and give thy saving health to all Nations, that while all joyne with one con∣sent to feare thee, and to give thee praises, thou mayest governe us all in peace & righteousnesse, and when thou shalt come to judge us, we may receive thy everlasting mercies. Grant this, for Iesus Christ his sake, our only Mediator and Ad∣vocate. Amen.
