4 Against Thee only have I sinned, and done this evil in Thy sight: that Thou mightest be justified in Thy saying, and clear when Thou art judged.

5 Behold, I was shapen in wickedness : and in sin hath my mother conceived me.

6 But lo, Thou requirest truth in the inward parts: and shalt make me to understand wisdom secretly.

7 Thou shalt purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: Thou shalt wash me, and I shall be whiter than

snow.

8 Thou shalt make me hear of joy and gladness: that the bones which Thou hast broken may rejoice.

9 Turn Thy face from my sins: and put out all my misdeeds.

10 Make me a clean heart, O GOD and renew a right spirit within

me.

II Cast me not away from Thy presence and take not Thy HOLY SPIRIT from me.

12 O give me the comfort of Thy help again and stablish me with Thy free SPIRIT.

13 Then shall I teach Thy ways unto the wicked and sinners shall be converted unto Thee.

14 Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, O GOD, Thou that art the GOD of my health and my tongue shall sing of Thy righteousness.

:

15 Thou shalt open my lips, O LORD and my mouth shall shew Thy praise.

16 For Thou desirest no sacrifice, else would I give it Thee: but Thou delightest not in burnt-offerings.

17 The sacrifice of GOD is a troubled spirit : a broken and contrite heart, O GOD, shalt Thou not despise.

18 O be favourable and gracious unto Sion: build Thou the walls of Jerusalem.

19 Then shalt Thou be pleased with the sacrifice of righteousness, with the burnt-offerings and obla

tions: then shall they offer young bullocks upon Thine altar.

Glory be to the FATHER.
As it was in the beginning.

PSALM CXXX.

OUT of the deep have I called unto Thee, O LORD: LORD, hear my voice.

2 O let Thine ears consider well : the voice of my complaint.

3 If Thou, LORD, wilt be extreme to mark what is done amiss: O Lord, who may abide it?

4 For there is mercy with Thee : therefore shalt Thou be feared.

5 I look for the LORD; my soul doth wait for Him in His word is my trust.

6 My soul fleeth unto the LORD: before the morning watch, I say, before the morning watch.

7 O Israel, trust in the LORD, for with the LORD there is mercy and with Him is plenteous redemption.

8 And He shall redeem Israel: from all his sins.

Glory be to the FATHER.

As it was in the beginning.

Or, the following.

LITANY.

GLORY be to Thee, O LORD, glory to Thee.

Glory to Thee, Who givest me sleep to recruit my weakness,

and to remit the toils
of this fretful flesh.

To this day and all days,
a perfect, holy, peaceful, healthy,
sinless course,

Vouchsafe, O Lord.

The Angel of peace, a faithful guide, guardian of souls and bodies, to encamp around me,

and ever to prompt what is salutary,

Vouchsafe, O Lord.

Pardon and remission
of all sins, and of all offences,

Vouchsafe, O LORD.

To our souls what is good
and convenient,

and peace to the world,
Vouchsafe, O LORD.

Repentance and strictness
for the residue of our life,
and health and peace to the end,
Vouchsafe, O LORD.

Whatever is true, whatever is honest, whatever just, whatever pure, whatever lovely,

whatever of good report, if there be any virtue, if any praise, such thoughts, such deeds, Vouchsafe, O LORD.

A Christian close,

without sin, without shame,

and, should it please Thee, without pain,

and a good answer

at the dreadful and fearful Judgement

Seat

of JESUS CHRIST our LORD,

Vouchsafe, O LORD.
