in Christ reconciling himself unto the world not imputing their trespasses He hath made him to be sin for us who knew no sin that we might be made the righteousness oâ— God in him Blessed be thy Name that thou hast sent thy holy Child Jesus to be the propitiation not only for our sins but for the sins of the whole world He hath suffered the just for the unjust that he might bring us unto God O do thou therefore help thy poor servants before thee and all thy children Give us to see the removal of eternal death by the death of the Lord Jesus Let us see thee at peace with us and justifying of us through thy grace All have sinned and come short of thy glory but being justified through the redemption of Christ Jesus whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation for the sins of the whole world Thou hast promised that whosoever believeth in the Lord Jesus Christ thy grace thy mercy thy love shall not perish but have everlasting life and thou hast given to thy poor servant exceeding great and precious promises and by thy own spirit bringing home these promises given him to believe the Records thou hast given of thy Son which beareth witness that God is reconciled to him and well pleased with him in Christ Jesus and given him eternal life And seeing thou hast bid his soul in Jesus Christ when he shall appear then shall we appear with him in glory and be made like to our Lord Jesus Christ By the same power that thou raisest up Jesus Christ from the dead by the same power thou art able to subdue all things There is nothing impossible with God what ever thou hast promised shall be performed Heaven and Earth shall pass away but one title of thy word shall not fail And therefore blessed be thy Name that thou hast revealed these things to thy poor and unworthy Creature that thou art his God and Father that thou wilt never leave him nor forsake him and thou hast hid his life in Christ and wrote his name in the Book of the Lord Jesus Christ and he rejoyceth that he knows he is his who is the onely true God Knows thou art well pleased with him and justified him freely from all his sins accepted him in and through the Lord Jesus Christ O therefore dear Father do thou receive his soul according to thy promise that he may be thine and thou his God O blessed Father do thou be pleased to do good to all thy people And now dear Father take care of our families be thou a Husband to our yoke-fellows a Father to the Fatherless Do them good abundantly above what we are able to ask or think and what is wanting and lost by our removal do thou hand out to them thy mercy and grace and move the hearts of the children of men to do them good Be thou their God help them and provide for them Seal up thy loving kindness to them not only for this life but for the life to come Do good to our Magistrates thou who hast the hearts of all men make such as are about them men fearing God and hating covetousness that may judge for God that he may have glory O be pleased to let his Majesty Rule and Reign in righteousness let his Throne be established in Righteousness and reveal the choicest of thy blessings to His poor soul manifest Christ Jesus and him crucified to him and give Him to see the most precious blood of Christ cleansing him from all sins Bind up his soul in the bundle of everlasting life Crown Him with a Crown of Righteousness as well as with an earthly Crown Let him be a Nursing Father and Nursing Mother indeed to this Nation that He may hate the evil door and be a praise to them that do well Dâ— good to every one of us O help us that we may first seek the Kingdom of God First believe in God and then honour our King First fear God and serve him and then give to Cesar that which is Cesars Give unto the King that which is the Kings Give Him all obedience to live quietly in all godliness and honesty And now O Lord do thou take away that spirit of emulation and strife and malice From whence comes wars come they not from our lusts The Lord remove pride preiudice and malice from us and cause us to love one another The Lord teach every one in their places to walk continually to the glory and praise of God that we professing the name of Christians may be enabled to walk humbly and meekly to do good to walk uprightly and to love mercy and then certainly we may expect that blessing that God hath promised to them that believe in him which is eternal life through
