PRAYERS.

II.

Oh, the depth of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how incomprehensible are His judgments, and His ways past finding out!

III.

Praise the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me praise His holy Name, Which saveth thy life from destruction, and feedeth thee with the bread of heaven.

IV.

Glory be to God on high, and on earth peace, good-will towards men. We worship Thee, O Lord, and we magnify Thy Name for ever, Who hast vouchsafed to fill our souls with gladness, and to feed us with the heavenly mysteries of Christ's sacred Body and Blood: humbly beseeching Thee that from henceforth we may walk in all good works, and serve Thee in holiness and pureness of living, to the honour of Thy Name. Amen.

Meditations whilst others are communicated.

I.

Happy are those servants whom when their Lord cometh He shall find thus doing.

II.

Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

If any one defile the temple of God, him will God destroy.

III.

Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more lest a worse thing happen unto thee.

IV.

The hour cometh, and now it is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth.

V.

Be we followers of God, as dear children, and walk in love even as Christ loved us, and gave Himself an offering and a sacrifice of a sweet savour unto God for us.

At the end of the Communion.

The Doxology.

To the King eternal, the immortal, invisible, and only wise God, be all honour and glory, now and for evermore. Amen.
