Let Us Pray.
We commend to thee, O Lord, the soul of this thy servant; and
beseech thee, O Jesus Christ, Redeemer of the world, that as in
thy mercy to him (_her_) thou becamest man, so now thou
mayest vouchsafe to admit him (_her_) into the number of the
blessed. Remember, O Lord, that he (_she_) is thy creature,
not made by strange gods, but by thee, the only true and living
God; for there is no other God but thee, and none can work thy
wonders. Let his (_her_) soul find comfort in thy sight, and
remember not his (_her_) former sins, nor any of those
excesses which he (_she_) has fallen into through the
violence of passion and corruption. For although he (_she_)
hath sinned, yet he (_she_) has still retained a true faith
in thee, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; he (_she_) has had a
zeal for thy honour, and faithfully adores thee his (_her_)
God and Creator of all things.
