DEVOUT PRAYERS.

as in duty bound, all Thy commandments. I trust, O Lord, in Thy infinite goodness, that Thou wilt pardon all my sins, through the death and passion of my Lord Jesus Christ; for though in His wounds there is justice to punish me, yet in the same wounds there is likewise mercy to forgive me. Mercy! mercy! mercy! Jesus, have mercy upon me.



DEVOUT PRAYERS.


A PRAYER PROPER TO BE DAILY REPEATED IN TIME OF SICKNESS.

O LORD Jesus Christ, behold I receive this sickness, with which Thou art pleased to visit me, as coming from Thy fatherly hand. It is Thy will it should be thus with me, and therefore I submit: Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. May this sickness be to the honor of Thy holy name, and for the good of my soul.
