conferreth vpon vs: As our deliuerance from euils, with which wee see others ouertaken, our preseruation from many dangers, to which wee are daily subiect: for the assistance of his grace and holy Spirit, against the tentations of our spirituall enemies; for keeping our hearts in his feare, and from wandring with the world, in the by-wayes of sinne and wicked∣nesse. For giuing vs hearts to seeke and serue him, and for accepting of vs and our imperfect actions, in the perfect obedience of Iesus Christ. For multiplying and continuall renewing of all his blessings and bene∣fits vpon vs, and those that are neere and deare vnto vs, both in tempo∣rall and spirituall things, and for those assured hopes which he hath giuen vs of heauenly and euerlasting happinesse in the world to come. For those which hee bestoweth publikely vpon the Church and Common wealth, and priuately vpon our families and our owne persons. And this daily and continuall thankfulnesse and thanksgiuing vnto God, is required of vs in the Scriptures. The Apostle exhorteth vs, to speake to our selues in Psalmes, and Hymnes, and spirituall Songs, singing and making melody in our hearts to the Lord, giuing thankes alwayes for all things, &c. And that wee should by Christ, offer the sacrifices of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips, giuing thankes to his name. And this was Dauids daily practice, as he often professeth; I will blesse the Lord (saith he) at all times his praise shall continually be in my mouth. And againe, Euery day will I blesse thee, and I will praise thy name for euer and euer. Which resolutions, because he could not atchieue by his owne abilities, he craueth helpe and assistance from God: Let my mouth bee filled with thy praise, and with thine honour all the day; and then hee promiseth to performe it; I will (saith he) praise thee more and more. My mouth shall shew foorth thy righteousnesse and thy salua∣tion all the day, for I know not the numbers thereof.
