I BELIEVE in the One only God, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, who created all things by Jesus Christ, and was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself.

I believe in God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world;

Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son;

Who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ;

Who hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light; having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, to the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the Beloved.

This I verily believe.

We thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight.

Father, glorify thy name.

Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven; give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: for thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

I believe in the name of the only begotten Son of God, by whom are all things, and we through him;

I believe that he was made flesh, and dwelt among us; and took on him the form of a servant ;

By the overshadowing of the Holy Ghost, was conceived of the Virgin Mary; as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; was born of a woman;

And being found in fashion as a man, was tempted in all points like as we are, yet without sin:

For he is the Lord, the Messenger of the covenant, whom we delight in. The Lord and his Spirit hath sent him to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord:

He spake that which he did know, and testified that which he had seen as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God.

Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world; Suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; The third day rose again from the dead, and with him many bodies of the saints which slept;

Ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the throne of the Father whence he will come, in like manner as he was seen going into heaven.

T. 58. pt. 2. Amen, come, Lord Jesus; come, we implore thee:
With longing hearts we now are waiting for thee;
Come soon, O come.

The Lord will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God, to judge both the quick and the dead.

This is my Lord, who redeemed me, a lost and undone human creature, purchased and gained me from sin, from death, and from the power of the devil;

Nor with gold or silver, but with his holy, precious blood, and with his innocent suffering and dying;

To the end that I should be his own, and in his kingdom live under him and serve him, in eternal righteousness, innocence, and happiness;

Even as he, being risen from the dead, liveth and reigneth, world without end. This I most certainly believe.

I believe in the Holy Ghost, who proceedeth from the Father, and whom our Lord Jesus Christ sent, after he went away, that he should abide with us for ever;

That he should comfort us, as a mother comforteth her children; That he should help our infirmities, and make intercession for us, with groanings which cannot be uttered;

That he should bear witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God, and teach us to cry, Abba, Father;

That he should shed abroad in our hearts the love of God, and make our bodies his holy temple;

And that he should work all in all, dividing to every man severally as he will.

To him be glory in the church, which is in Christ Jesus, the holy, universal Christian church, in the communion of saints, at all times, and from eternity to eternity. Amen.

I believe, that, by my own reason and strength, I cannot believe in Jesus Christ my Lord, or come to him;

But that the Holy Ghost calleth me by the gospel, enlighteneth me with his gifts, sanctifieth and preserveth me in the true faith; Even as he calleth, gathereth, enlighteneth, and sanctifieth the whole church on earth, which he keepeth in Jesus Christ in the only true faith;

In which Christian church, God forgiveth me and every believer all sin daily and abundantly.

This I assuredly believe.

I have a desire to depart and to be with Christ, which is far better; I shall never taste death; yea, I shall attain unto the resurrection of the dead for the body which I shall put off, this grain of corruptibility, shall put on incorruption: my flesh shall rest in hope.

And the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, shall also quicken these our mortal bodies, if so be that the Spirit of God hath dwelt in them. Amen.

We poor sinners pray,

Hear us, gracious Lord and God;

And keep us in everlasting fellowship with our brethren, N. N., and with our sisters, N. N.,* who have entered into the joy of their Lord; (and whose bodies are buried here ;)

Here may be mentioned, in each congregation, the names of those who have departed into eternal rest, since the preceding Easter.

Also with the servants and handmaids of our church, whom thou hast called home in the past year, and with the whole church triumphant; and let us rest together in thy presence from our labours. Amen.

T. 15. They are at rest in lasting bliss,

Beholding Christ our Saviour;
Our humble expectation is

To live with him for ever.

Glory be to him who is the Resurrection and the Life; he was dead, and behold, he is alive for evermore; And he that believeth in him, though he were dead, yet shall he live.

Glory be to him in the church which waiteth for him, and in that which is around him; for ever and ever.

T. 151. pt. 2. Grant us to lean unshaken

Upon thy faithfulness,
Until we hence are taken

To see thee face to face.

Amen.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with us all. Amen.

A FORM FOR THE SOLEMNIZATION OF MARRIAGE

(The persons to be married being present with the necessary witnesses, and being placed opposite the Minister, the woman at the man's left hand, the following verse shall be sung:)

T. 166. THAT peace which God alone reveals,

And by his word of grace imparts,
Which only the believer feels,

Direct and keep and cheer our hearts;
And may the holy Three in One,
The Father, Word, and Comforter,
Pour an abundant blessing down
On every soul assembled here.

(The Minister shall then say :)

Dearly beloved, we are assembled in the sight of God, and in the presence of this congregation, to join together this man and this woman in holy Matrimony; which is an honourable estate, instituted of God in the time of man's innocency, and shows forth, in a figure, the mystical union between Christ and his church.

Our Lord sanctioned it by his presence, and honoured it by his first miracle, which he wrought at the marriage in Cana of Galilee.
