Who hast willed us to be made conformable to the image of thy Son,
Who hast prepared a kingdom for thine elect from the foundation of the world,
Who, without respect of persons, judgest according to every one’s work,
In whose house are many mansions.
Father, to whom all things are possible,
Father, who lovest the Son, and hast given all things into his hand,
Without whom no one cometh to the Son, except thou, Father, draw him,
Be favourable, O Lord, and spare us.
Be favourable, O Lord, and hear us.

From all evil, Deliver us,
From the power of Satan, O Lord.
From anger, hatred, and all ill-will,
From the dangers that threaten sinners,
From everlasting death,
By thy knowledge, most deep, by which thou seest into the depths,
By thy immense power, by which thou hast created all things out of nothing,
By thy tender providence, by which thou governest all things,
By thy eternal love, with which thou hast loved the world,
By thy infinite goodness, with which thou fillest all things. In the day of judgment, We sinners,
That thy name may always and every where be sanctified, Beseech thee,
That thou wouldst permit thy kingdom to come to us, hear us.
That thy will may ever be done by us on earth, as it is in heaven,
That thou wouldst vouchsafe to give us our daily bread,
That thou wouldst vouchsafe mercifully to forgive us our trespasses,
That thou wouldst vouchsafe to protect us under the shadow of thy wings, and to free us from all temptation,
That thou wouldst vouchsafe to deliver us from all evil.
That thou wouldst vouchsafe to give the good Spirit to them that ask thee,
