That it may please thee to defend, and provide for, the fatherless
children, and widows, and all that are desolate and oppressed,
_We beseech thee to hear us, good Lord_.
That it may please thee to have mercy upon all men,
_We beseech thee to hear us, good Lord_.
That it may please thee to forgive our enemies persecutors, and
slanderers, and to turn their hearts,
_We beseech thee to hear us, good Lord_.
That it may please thee to give and preserve to our use the kindly
fruits of the earth, so as in due time we may enjoy them,
_We beseech thee to hear us, good Lord_.
That it may please thee to give us true repentance; to forgive us
all our sins, negligences, and ignorances; and to endue us with
the grace of thy Holy Spirit, to amend our lives according to thy
holy Word,
_We beseech thee to hear us, good Lord_.
Son of God: we beseech thee to hear us.
_Son of God: we beseech thee to hear us_.
O Lamb of God: that takest away the sins of the world;
_Grant us thy peace_.
O Lamb of God: that takest away the sins of the world;
_Have mercy upon us_.
O Christ, hear us.
_Christ, hear us_.
Lord, have mercy upon us.
_Lord, have mercy upon us_.
Christ, have mercy upon us.
_Christ, have mercy upon us_.
Lord, have mercy upon us.
_Lord, have mercy upon us_.
_Then shall the Priest, and the people with him, say the Lord's
Prayer_.
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.
_Priest_. O Lord, deal not with us after our sins.
_Answer_. Neither reward us after our iniquities.
Let us pray.
O God, merciful Father, that despisest not the sighing of a
contrite heart, nor the desire of such as be sorrowful: Mercifully
assist our prayers that we make before thee in all our troubles
and adversities, whensoever they oppress us; and graciously hear
us, that those evils, which the craft and subtilty of the devil
or man worketh against us, be brought to nought, and by the
providence of thy goodness they may be dispersed; that we thy
servants, being hurt by no persecutions, may evermore give thanks
unto thee in thy holy Church; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
_Lord, arise, help us, and deliver us for thy Name's sake_.
O God, we have heard with our ears, and our fathers have declared
unto us, the noble works that thou didst in their days, and in
the old time before them.
_Lord, arise, help us, and deliver us for thine honour_.
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.
From our enemies defend us, O Christ.
_Graciously look upon our afflictions_.
Pitifully behold the sorrows of our hearts.
_Mercifully forgive the sins of thy people_.
Favourably with mercy hear our prayers.
