O Lord God of whom commeth our salva∣tion, thou art our defence and strength, our health and our glory, give us thy grace, that we may put our whole trust in thee alway, that we may pour out our hearts before thee in all our troubles, that we may wait still upon thee for the performance of our expectation in all our longings and desires. Be thou our defence, uphold us that we may not fall into those great sins, which lay waste our consciences, or into such miseries as make us without hope or remedy, the miseries of despair, obstinate ma∣lice, or the woes of a sad eternity. Teach us to despise riches, to disclaim all trust in the creatures, not to delight in lies, or vanity, not to multiply wrongs and robbery, that when thou shalt come with power and great glory, to reward every man according to his work, thou maist be mercifull unto us, pardoning our sinnes, and accepting us to life eternall, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
