I will praise Thee, for Thou has heard me.--Psalm 118:21

OUR DEAR Heavenly Father, reverently do we approach Thee, the giver of all good and perfect gifts. We give thanks to Thee for all the blessings Thou has so graciously bestowed upon us. Thou has kept us day by day unto this hour. We must say that goodness and mercy have followed us . We have sinned, and come short of the glory ofGod. For the sake of Jesus do Thou forgive all our sins. Wash us in the blood of the Lamb.

Give us grace to perform every duty in life conscientiously, and in Thy fear, O Lord. May we not be slothful in business, but fervent in spirit, serving the Lord. May our lives be fully consecrated to Thy service. Help us to love our neighbors as ourselves. Give us the mind of Christ. May we crucify the old Adam with all his affection and lusts, so that the new man may daily arise within us to live before Thee in righteousness and purity. Give us grace, dear Lord, to live such lives day by day, that when our end shall come we may be prepared to enter upon that rest that remaineth for the people of God. Grant these blessings unto us, and to all our fellow men, out of the fulness of Thine infinite love and mercy, in Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour, and for His sake alone.

Amen.
