Prayer of Thanksgiving.
stant; and never let any sinful passions any more ruffle and discompose my mind. Blessed be thy name for that relish thou hast given me of spiritual delights, that desire of possessing the eternal inheritance. Let the enjoyments of sense appear mean and contemptible; and let not the pleasures of the world henceforward any more prevail upon me to transgress thy holy laws.
Grant, O LORD, that I may walk worthy of these thy distinguishing mercies, and live as it becomes the redeemed of the LORD, Without thee, O blessed Jesus, I can do nothing without thee, who art the Sun of righteousness, I shall walk in darkness: without thee, who art the Physician of souls, I shall languish and die; without thee, who art the joy of all devout minds, I shall consume my days away in sadness. Remain, therefore, O LORD, and abide with me for ever; I shall then be enabled to do thy will in this life, and thereby be qualified to partake of thy glories to all eternity in the next. Amen.
