Who forgivest us our sins, Matt. vi.
Who hast chosen us that we should be holy and unspotted in thy sight, Eph. i.
Who givest the good Spirit to them that ask thee, Luke xi.
Father of lights, from whom cometh down every best gift, and every perfect gift, James i.
Father, who raisest up the dead, and givest life, John v.
Father, who seest in secret, Matt. vi.
Father, who hast life in thyself, John v.
Husbandman, who workest until now.
Who makest thy sun to rise upon the good and the bad,
Who rainest upon the just and the unjust,
Who hast numbered all the hairs of our head,
Who hast not spared even thine own Son, but hast delivered him up for us all,
Who hast called us to the fellowship of thy Son.
Who hast graced us with grace in thy beloved Son,
Whose Son took the form of a servant, that he might redeem servants,
Who hast translated us into the kingdom of the Son of thy love,
Who hast made us worthy to be partakers in the lot of the Saints,
Who hast called us to the marriage of thy Son,
Who hast loved us, and hast given us everlasting consolation.
Who hast so loved the world, as to give thine only-begotten Son,
Who by a voice coming down from heaven, from the excellent glory, didst glorify thy Son,
Who art well pleased in thy Son,
Who hast been pleased to give us a kingdom,
Whose face the Angels in heaven always see,
Who hast bestowed upon us such charity, that we should be called; and be thy sons,
