PREFACE.

T

HE Worship of a Chriftian on Earth confifts of Confeffion, Prayer, Thanksgiving, and Praife. Confeffion and Prayer belong to him as guilty, weak, and needy. Thanksgiving as the Object of fparing Mercy, providential Goodness, and fpecial Grace.-But Praise properly terminates in GOD. It flows from a Love and Admiration of his Excellencies and Attributes, wherever, whenever, or on whomfoever displayed.
