against me yet a stedfast and true Faith in Christ Jesus shall Triumph over it Vouchsafe O God that Faith unto thy Servant that I may be enabled by the fellowship of his Death and Resurrection to Crucify the old Man and Mortify the whole body of sin Make me strong O God in the Power of his Might that all the days of my Life I may be defended from all adversities and in the evil day the day of my death strengthned in the inner Man That having finished my course I may with those that have overcome through the Blood of the Lamb arrive at those Blessed Mansions that thou hast prepared for all those that fight the good fight of Faith.

Thy Will be done in Earth as it is in Heaven O Heavenly Father direct and govern our Wills by thy holy Spirit that we may as voluntarily as readily and as cheerfully submit to thee as thy Creatures in Heaven do and to that end correct our untamed Affections that they lead us not astray and drive away the darkness of our Understandings that we may see and know the true way wherein we ought to walk Give us grace to forsake our own perverse and wicked Wills and to frame our selves wholly according to thy Good and Holy Will lest in Prosperity we grow proud and secure or in Adversity murmur or despair Petition IV. Give us this day our daily Bread. O Thou Giver Preserver of all our lives bestow upon us what thou seest convenient for our sustenance and support Give thy Blessing also along with it or else tho' we abound never so much we confess it is not able to nourish us We are daily asking bread of thee but O Lord we are not distrustful of thy loving Providence and therefore we ask but for this day and depend upon thee for the next And we put up this Petition to thee in the Night also because our whole life time is but one day wherein our frail bodies have continual need of thy sustaining and upholding them But as we implore thy Care for our Bodies much more ought we to do it for our Souls Give us such a daily Measure of continual Grace as shall enable us to go through the Remainder of our War-fare Feed our Souls with the Graces of thy Holy Spirit that our Understandings may be enlightened our Wills and Affections rectified our Corrupt Natures renewed and our Souls and Bodies purified and sanctified that both our Souls and Bodies may be now and ever precious in thy sight Petition V. And forgive us our Trespasses as we forgive them that trespass against us FOrgive us our Trespasses our spiritual Debts which bind us to an eternal Payment Alas The best of us is not able to satisfy thee for the least Trespass he commits and therefore with bended knees and prostrate souls we adore thy Goodness in sending thy Son to cloath and cover us with Holiness Innocency and Justice And as we can never hope to obtain this unless we also freely and heartily forgive others let this be the Token to know whether we desire Forgiveness of thee or not keep us from thinking that we deserve Forgiveness at thy hands for forgiving others yet by being merciful as thou art merciful lest this qualifie us for thy Pardon Petition VI. And lead us not into Temptation but deliver us from Evil. DEliver us O Lord out of those snares which the Devil our Lusts or the World have laid for us Our Enemies O Lord are mighty and vigilant and the best of us unable of himself to withstand the least of their Assaults Leave us not O God of our strength to be overcome by their Wiles or Power and suffer us not to be tempted above what thy Grace does enable us to bear And though in those Temptations that thou permittest us to be led into thy favour may seem to be shadowed from us for a time yet teach us so much spiritual Wisdom as not to despair of Deliverance but to be satisfied that thou hast appointed them their Limits which they are not able to go beyond The Doxology or giving of Glory to GOD. For thine is the Kingdom FOr thou art he that rules and governs all the World therefore we submit and surrender up both our bodies and souls to be wholly and solely at thy disposal The Power Thine is the Power therefore we sue to thee the Fountain of All-sufficiency for Grace Strength and what ever else thou seest convenient for us And the Glory And to thee we acknowledge the Thanks the Honour and the Glory due for what we are and for all that we have For ever and ever And thy Kingdom Power and Glory is from everlasting and shall continue world without end Amen So be it The Ten Commandments EXPOUNDED The Preface God spake these Words and said I am the Lord thy God.
