At the conclusion of Divine Service af∣ter these words, The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, &c.

Say, Amen, with the heartiest and most earnest affection. And add some such words as these.

BLessed be thy name, O God, for the good hope which thy infi∣nite charity hath given us; by thy great grace in Christ Jesus, and the plentiful communication of the holy Ghost. O let thy mercy be upon me according as I hope in thee. Pre∣serve me alway in thy love, through that abundant grace in thy Son Christ, and the powerful presence of thy holy Spirit working in me mightily, this day and ever.
