The sacrifice of God is a troubled spirit: a broken and contrite heart, O God, shalt thou not despise. O be favourable and gracious unto Sion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem. Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifice of righteousness, with the burnt-offerings and oblations: then shall they offer young bullocks upon thine altar. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son: and to the Holy Ghost; _Answer_. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: world without end. Amen. Lord, have mercy upon us. _Christ, have mercy upon us_. Lord, have mercy upon us. Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, in earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive them that trespass against us; And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. Amen. _Minister_. O Lord, save thy servants; _Answer_. That put their trust in thee. _Minister_. Send unto them help from above. _Answer_. And evermore mightily defend them. _Minister_. Help us, O God our Saviour. _Answer_. And for the glory of thy Name deliver us; be merciful unto us sinners, for thy Name's sake. _Minister_. O Lord, hear our prayer. _Answer_. And let our cry come unto thee. _Minister_. Let us pray. O Lord, we beseech thee, mercifully hear our prayers, and spare all those who confess their sins unto thee; that they, whose consciences by sin are accused, by thy merciful pardon may be absolved; through Christ our Lord. _Amen_. O most mighty God, and merciful Father, who hast compassion upon all men, and hatest nothing that thou hast made; who wouldest not the death of a sinner, but that he should rather turn from his sin, and be saved: Mercifully forgive us our trespasses; receive and comfort us, who are grieved and wearied with the burden of our sins. Thy property is always to have mercy; to thee only it appertaineth to forgive sins. Spare us therefore, good Lord, spare thy people, whom thou hast redeemed; enter not into judgement with thy servants, who are vile earth, and miserable sinners; but so turn thine anger from us, who meekly acknowledge our vileness, and truly repent us of our faults, and so make haste to help us in this world, that we may ever live with thee in the world to come; through Jesus Christ our Lord. _Amen_. _Then shall the people say this that followeth, after the Minister_.
