Da pacem. Lamentation. To perfevere in thy gofpel,

which can put finne to flight. O Lord that giv❜ft thy holy word, fend preachers plenteously: That in the fame we may accord, and therein live and die. O holy Spirit, direct aright

the preachers of thy word, That thou by them mayft cut down finne as it were with a sword. Depart not from thy paftours pure,

but aid them at their need: Which break to us the bread of life, whereon our fouls do feed.

O bleffed Spirit of truth keep us

and praise thee day and night. O Lord increase our faith in us, and love fo to abound; That man and wife be void offtrife,

The Lamentation.

Lord, in thee is all my truft, give

care unto my wofull cry: Refuse

me not that am unjust, but bowing

down thy heavenly eye, Behold how

I do ftill lament my finnes wherein Ido offend: O Lord for them shall

I be flient, fith thee to please I do

No, no, not fo thy will is bent

to deal with finners in thine ire: But when in heart they fhall repent, To thee therefore ftill fhal! I cry (defire.. thou graneft, with speed their just to wash away my finfull crime: Thy bloud, O Lord, is not yet drie

but that it may help me in time. Hafte thee, O Lord, hafte thee, I fay,

to poure on me thy gifts of grace, That when this life shall flit away

in heaven with thee I may have place: Where thou doft reigne eternally (fend, with God which once did down thee:

Where

Where angels fing continually

to thee be praise world without end. A thanksgiving after the receiving of the Lords fupper.

Sing this as the 137 pfalme. He Lord be thanked for his gifts

and mercies evermore That he doth fhew unto his faints:

to him be laud therefore.

Our tongues cannot to praise the Lord
as he doth right deferve:
Our hearts cannot of him fo think
as he doth us preserve.

His benefits they be so great

to us that be but finne, That at our hands for recompenfe

there is no hope to winne.

O finfull flesh, that thou shouldst have
fuch mercies of the Lord!
Thou doft deserve more worthily
of him to be abhorr'd.

Nought elfe but finne and wretchedneffe
doth reft within h
оцг arts:
And stubbornly against the Lord
we daily play our parts.
The funne above in firmament

that is to us a light.

Doth fhew it felfe more clear and pure
then we be in his fight.
The heavens above and all therein

more holy are then we :
They ferve the Lord in their estate,
each one in his degree.
They do not strive for mastership.
nor flack their office fet :
But ferve the Lord and do his will,
hate is to them no let.

Alfo the earth and all therein
of God it is in aw,

It doth obferve the formers will,
by skilfull natures law.
The fea and all that is therein

doth bend when God doth beck: The fpirits beneath do tremble all,

and fear his wrathfull check. But we (alas!) for whom all these

were made them for to rule, Do not fo know or love the Lord as doth the ox or mule. Alaw he gave for us to know, what was his holy will:

A thansgiving. A prayer.

He would us good, but we would not

avoid the thing is ill.

Not one of us that feeketh out

the Lord of life to please:
Nor doth the thing that might us lead
to Chrift and quiet ease.
Thus are we all his enemies,
we can it not denie:
And he again of his good will
would not that we should die.

Therefore when remedie was none

to bring us unto life,
The Sonne of God our flesh he took
to end our mortall ftrife.
And all the law of God the Lord

he did it full obey;
And for our finnes upon the crosse

his bloud our debts did pay.
And that we fhould not yet forget

what good he to us wrought, A figne he left our eyes to tell

that he our bodies bought.
In bread and wine here visible

unto thine eyes and taste,
His mercies great thou mayeft record
if that his Spirit thou haft.
As once the corn did live and grow,

and was cut down with fithe,
And threshed out with many ftripes,
out from his husk to drive:
And as the mill with violence

did tear it out so small,
And made it like to earthly duft,

not fparing it at all:

And as the oven with fire hot

did close it up with heat, And all this done that I have faid,

that it should be our meat:
So was the Lord in his ripe age

cut down by cruel death :
His foul he gave in torments great,
and yeelded up his breath.
Because that he to us might be

an everlasting bread,
With much reproch and troubles great
on earth his life he led.
And as the grapes in pleasant time

are preffed very fore,
And plucked down when they be ripe,
and let to grow no more:
Because the juyce that in them is
as comfortable drink

FINI S.

We might receive and joyfull be

when forrows make us shrink: So Chrift his bloud out preffed was with nails and eke with spear: The juyce thereof doth fave all thofe that rightly do him fear.

And as the corns by únitie

into one loaf are knit:

So is the Lord and his whole church,
though he in heaven fit.
As many grapes make but one wine,
fo fhould we be but one
In faith and love in Christ above,
and unto Chrift alone:
Leading a life without all ftrife
in quiet eft and peace:
From envie and froin malice both

our hearts and tongues to cease.
Which if we do, then fhall we fhew
that we his chofen be:
By faith in him to lead a life

as alwayes willed he.
And that we may fo do indeed,
God fend us all his grace:

Then after death we shall be sure
with him to have a place.

A prayer. R. W.

Referve us, Lord, by thy deare word,

from Turk and Pope defend us Lord:

Which both would thruft out of his

throne Our Lord Jefus Chrift thy deare

Sonne.

Lord Jefus Chrift fhew forth thy might,
That thou art Lord of lords by right:,
Thy poore afflicted flock defend,
That we may praise thee without end.

God holy Ghoft our comforter,
Be our patrone, help, and fuccour :
Give us one minde and perfect peace,
All gifts of grace in us increase.

Thou living God in perfons three,
Thy name be prais'd in unitie
In all our need fo us defend,
That we may praife thee without end.
