- 0:14Speaker 1: Prayer daily throughout the year. At the beginning of morning Prayer,
- 0:19Speaker 1: the minister shall read with a loud voice, one or
- 0:22Speaker 1: more of these sentences of the scriptures that follow, and
- 0:25Speaker 1: then he shall say that which is written after the
- 0:28Speaker 1: said sentences. When the wicked man turneth away from his
- 0:33Speaker 1: wickedness that he has committed, and doeth that which is
- 0:36Speaker 1: lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive. Ezekiel eighteen,
- 0:42Speaker 1: verse twenty seven. I acknowledge my transgressions, and my sin
- 0:47Speaker 1: is ever before me Psalms fifty one, verse three. Hide
- 0:53Speaker 1: thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine
- 0:56Speaker 1: iniquities Psalms fifty one, verse nine. The sacrifices of God
- 1:02Speaker 1: are a broken spirit, a broken and contrite heart. O God,
- 1:06Speaker 1: thou wilt not despise Psalms fifty one, verse seventeen. Rend
- 1:12Speaker 1: your heart and not your garments, and turn unto the
- 1:16Speaker 1: Lord your God. For he is gracious and merciful, slow
- 1:20Speaker 1: to anger, and of great kindness and repentes him of
- 1:24Speaker 1: the evil Joel two, verse thirteen. To the Lord our
- 1:29Speaker 1: God belong mercies and forgiveness. Though we have rebelled against him,
- 1:34Speaker 1: neither have we obeyed the voice of the Lord our
- 1:36Speaker 1: God to walk in his laws which he set before us.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Daniel nine, verses nine and ten. O Lord, correct me,
- 1:46Speaker 1: but with judgment, not in thine anger, lest thou bring
- 1:50Speaker 1: me to nothing. Jeremiah ten, verse twenty four. Psalms six,
- 1:55Speaker 1: verse one. Repent ye, for the kingdom of Hea. Heaven
- 2:00Speaker 1: is at hand. Saint Matthew three, verse two. I will
- 2:05Speaker 1: arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father,
- 2:09Speaker 1: I have sinned against Heaven and before thee, and are
- 2:12Speaker 1: no more worthy to be called thy son. Saint Luke fifteen,
- 2:17Speaker 1: verses eighteen and nineteen. Enter not into judgment with thy servant,
- 2:22Speaker 1: O Lord, For in thy sight shall no man living
- 2:25Speaker 1: be justified. Psalms one hundred and forty three, verse two.
- 2:30Speaker 1: If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves,
- 2:34Speaker 1: and the truth is not in us. But if we
- 2:37Speaker 1: confess our sins, God is faithful and just to forgive
- 2:41Speaker 1: us our sins and decleanse Us from all unrighteousness one
- 2:46Speaker 1: Saint John one Verses eight and nine. Dearly beloved brethren,
- 2:52Speaker 1: the scripture moveth us in sundry places to acknowledge and
- 2:56Speaker 1: confess our manifold sins and wickedness, and that we should
- 3:00Speaker 1: not dissemble nor cloak them before the face of Almighty God,
- 3:04Speaker 1: our heavenly Father, but confess them with unhumble, lowly, penitent
- 3:10Speaker 1: and obedient heart, to the end that we may obtain
- 3:14Speaker 1: forgiveness of the same by His infinite goodness and mercy.
- 3:19Speaker 1: And as though we ought at all times humbly to
- 3:22Speaker 1: acknowledge our sins before God, yet ought we most chiefly
- 3:26Speaker 1: so to do when we assemble and meet together, to
- 3:30Speaker 1: render thanks for the great benefits that we have received
- 3:33Speaker 1: at His hands, to set forth His most worthy praise,
- 3:37Speaker 1: to hear His most holy word, and to ask those
- 3:41Speaker 1: things that are requisite and necessary as well for the
- 3:45Speaker 1: body as for the soul. Wherefore I pray and beseech you,
- 3:50Speaker 1: as many as I here present, to accompany me with
- 3:54Speaker 1: a pure heart and humble voice unto the throne of
- 3:57Speaker 1: the heavenly Grace, saying after me a general confession to
- 4:02Speaker 1: be said of the whole congregation after the minister, all kneeling,
- 4:08Speaker 1: All Mighty and most Merciful Father, we have heard and
- 4:12Speaker 1: strayed from Thy ways like lost sheep. We have followed
- 4:16Speaker 1: to much the devices and desires of our own hearts.
- 4:20Speaker 1: We have offended against Thy holy laws. We have left
- 4:24Speaker 1: undone those things which we ought to have done, and
- 4:27Speaker 1: we have done those things which we ought not to
- 4:29Speaker 1: have done. And there is no health in us. But Thou,
- 4:34Speaker 1: o Lord, have mercy upon us miserable offenders. Spare thou Thou,
- 4:39Speaker 1: o God, which confess their fault. Restore thou them that
- 4:43Speaker 1: are penitent according to Thy promises declared unto mankind in
- 4:48Speaker 1: Christ Jesu our Lord, and grant o most Merciful Father,
- 4:53Speaker 1: for his sake, that we may hereafter deliver godly, righteous
- 4:58Speaker 1: and sober life to the glory of Thy holy name. Amen.
- 5:04Speaker 1: The absolution or remission of sins to be pronounced by
- 5:08Speaker 1: the priest alone, standing the people, still kneeling, Almighty God,
- 5:14Speaker 1: the father of our Lord, Jesus Christ, who desires not
- 5:18Speaker 1: the death of a sinner, but rather that he may
- 5:21Speaker 1: turn from his wickedness and live, and has given power
- 5:25Speaker 1: and commandment to his ministers to declare and pronounce to
- 5:29Speaker 1: his people, being penitent, the absolution and remission of their sins.
- 5:35Speaker 1: He pardoneth and absolveth all them that truly repent and
- 5:39Speaker 1: unfeignedly believe His Holy Gospel. Wherefore, let us beseech Him
- 5:45Speaker 1: to grant us true repentance and his Holy Spirit, that
- 5:50Speaker 1: those things may please Him, which we do at this present,
- 5:54Speaker 1: and that the rest of our life hereafter may be
- 5:56Speaker 1: pure and holy, so at the last we may come
- 6:00Speaker 1: to His eternal joy through Jesus Christ, our Lord. The
- 6:06Speaker 1: people shall answer here and at the end of all prayers. Amen.
- 6:11Speaker 1: Then the minister shall kneel and say the Lord's prayer
- 6:15Speaker 1: with an audible voice, the people also kneeling and repeating
- 6:19Speaker 1: it with him, both here and wheresoever else it is
- 6:23Speaker 1: used in divine service, Our Father, which art in Heaven,
- 6:28Speaker 1: Hallowed be thy name, Thy Kingdom. Come, Thy will be
- 6:33Speaker 1: done in earth as it is in Heaven. Give us
- 6:37Speaker 1: this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses,
- 6:41Speaker 1: as we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead
- 6:45Speaker 1: us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For
- 6:50Speaker 1: Thine is the Kingdom, the power, and the glory forever
- 6:53Speaker 1: and ever Amen. Then likewise he shall say, O Lord,
- 6:59Speaker 1: O thou, our lips answer, and our mouth shall show
- 7:04Speaker 1: forth thy praise Priest, Oh God, make speed to save us. Answer,
- 7:11Speaker 1: O Lord, make haste to help us. Here all standing up,
- 7:16Speaker 1: the priest shall say, glory be to the Father and
- 7:20Speaker 1: to the Son and to the Holy Ghost. Answer, as
- 7:25Speaker 1: it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall
- 7:28Speaker 1: be world without end. Amen, Priest, praise ye the Lord. Answer.
- 7:35Speaker 1: The Lord's name be praised. Then shall be said or

- 7:43Speaker 1: another answer is appointed, and on the nineteenth day of
- 7:47Speaker 1: every month. It is not to be read here but
- 7:50Speaker 1: in the ordinary course of the psalms Veneti exultarmis Domino
- 7:56Speaker 1: Psalms ninety five. Oh come, let us sing unto the Lord.
- 8:01Speaker 1: Let us heartily rejoice in the strength of our salvation.
- 8:06Speaker 1: Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and show
- 8:10Speaker 1: ourselves glad in him with psalms. For the Lord is
- 8:14Speaker 1: a great God and a great king above all gods.
- 8:19Speaker 1: In his hands are all the corners of the earth,
- 8:22Speaker 1: and the strength of the hills is his. Also. The
- 8:26Speaker 1: sea is his, and he made it and his hands
- 8:30Speaker 1: prepared the dry land. Oh, come, let us worship and
- 8:35Speaker 1: fall down and kneel before the Lord, our maker. For
- 8:39Speaker 1: he is the Lord, our God, and we are the
- 8:43Speaker 1: people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand.
- 8:47Speaker 1: To day, if ye will hear his voice, harden not
- 8:50Speaker 1: your hearts, as in the provocation, as in the day
- 8:54Speaker 1: of temptation in the wilderness, when your father's tempted me.
- 8:58Speaker 1: Prove to me and soul all my works forty years long,
- 9:03Speaker 1: as I grieved with this generation and said, it is
- 9:07Speaker 1: a people that do err in their hearts, for they
- 9:10Speaker 1: have not known thy ways, and to whom I swear
- 9:15Speaker 1: in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.
- 9:20Speaker 1: Glory be to the Father and to the Son and
- 9:23Speaker 1: to the Holy Ghost, as it was in the beginning,
- 9:27Speaker 1: is now and ever shall be world without end. Amen.

- 10:59Speaker 1: All angels cry aloud the heavens and all the powers
- 11:03Speaker 1: therein to THEE. Cherubim and Seraphim continually do cry, Holy, Holy,
- 11:11Speaker 1: Holy Lord God of Sabbioth. Heaven and Earth are full

- 11:54Speaker 1: the Father. When thou tookest upon THEE to deliver man,
- 11:59Speaker 1: thou didst not abhor the Virgin's womb. When thou hadst
- 12:04Speaker 1: overcome the sharpness of death, Thou didst open the Kingdom
- 12:08Speaker 1: of Heaven to all believers. Thou sittest at the right
- 12:12Speaker 1: hand of God in the glory of the Father. We
- 12:16Speaker 1: believe that thou shalt come to be our judge. We
- 12:21Speaker 1: therefore pray THEE. Help thy servants, whom thou hast redeemed

- 17:48Speaker 1: Benedictus Saint Luke one verse sixty eight. Blessed be the
- 17:53Speaker 1: Lord God of Israel. For he has visited and redeemed
- 17:57Speaker 1: his people, and he has raised up a mighty salvation
- 18:02Speaker 1: for us in the house of his servant David. And
- 18:06Speaker 1: he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets which
- 18:09Speaker 1: have been since the world begun, that we should be
- 18:13Speaker 1: saved from our enemies, from the hand of all that
- 18:17Speaker 1: hate us, to perform the mercy promised to our forefathers,
- 18:22Speaker 1: and to remember his holy covenant, to perform the oath
- 18:27Speaker 1: which he swear to our forefather Abraham, that he would
- 18:31Speaker 1: give us, that we, being delivered out of the hands

- 19:00Speaker 1: tender mercy of our God, whereby the day spring from
- 19:04Speaker 1: on high hath visited us to give light to them
- 19:09Speaker 1: that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death,
- 19:12Speaker 1: to guide our feet into the way of peace. Glory
- 19:17Speaker 1: be to the Father and to the Son, and to

- 19:23Speaker 1: now and ever shall be world without end. Amen, all
- 19:29Speaker 1: this palm Jubilate Dao Psalms one hundred. Be joyful in

- 19:39Speaker 1: and come before his presence with a song. Be ye
- 19:43Speaker 1: sure that the Lord he is God. It is he
- 19:47Speaker 1: who hath made us, and not we our souls. We
- 19:50Speaker 1: are his people and the sheep of his pasture. Oh,
- 19:55Speaker 1: go your way into his gates with thanksgiving, and into

- 20:25Speaker 1: Then shall be sung or said to the Apostle's creed
- 20:29Speaker 1: by the minister and the people standing, except only such
- 20:32Speaker 1: days as the creed of Saint Athanasius is appointed to
- 20:36Speaker 1: be read. I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker
- 20:41Speaker 1: of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only son,
- 20:45Speaker 1: our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born
- 20:49Speaker 1: of the Virgin Mary, suffered unto conscious Pilate, was crucified,
- 20:54Speaker 1: dead and buried. He descended into hell. The third day
- 21:00Speaker 1: he rose again from the dead. He ascended into Heaven
- 21:04Speaker 1: and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty.
- 21:08Speaker 1: From thence he shall come to judge the quick and
- 21:10Speaker 1: the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Holy
- 21:15Speaker 1: Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins,
- 21:20Speaker 1: the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
- 21:26Speaker 1: And after that these prayers, following all devoutly kneeling, the
- 21:31Speaker 1: minister first pronouncing with a loud voice. The Lord be
- 21:35Speaker 1: with you. Answer and with thy spirit. Minister, let us pray, Lord,
- 21:43Speaker 1: have mercy upon us, Christ, have mercy upon us. Lord,
- 21:49Speaker 1: have mercy upon us. Then the minister, clerks, and people
- 21:54Speaker 1: shall say the Lord's prayer with a loud voice, Our Father,
- 21:59Speaker 1: which art in Heaven, Hallowed be thy name, Thy Kingdom. Come,
- 22:04Speaker 1: Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven.
- 22:08Speaker 1: Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us
- 22:11Speaker 1: our trespasses, as we forgive them that tresp us against us,
- 22:16Speaker 1: And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
- 22:23Speaker 1: Then the priest standing up shall say, O Lord, show
- 22:27Speaker 1: thy mercy upon us, Answer and grant us thy salvation. Priest,
- 22:34Speaker 1: O Lord save the king, Answer and mercifully hear us
- 22:39Speaker 1: when we call upon thee Priest, endure thy ministers with righteousness.
- 22:45Speaker 1: Answer and make thy chosen people joyful. Priest, O Lord,
- 22:52Speaker 1: save thy people. Answer and bless thine inheritance. Priest, give
- 22:59Speaker 1: peace in our time, O Lord, answer, because there is
- 23:03Speaker 1: none other that fighteth for us, but only thou, O God, Priest,
- 23:09Speaker 1: Oh God, may clean our hearts within us. Answer and
- 23:13Speaker 1: take not thy holy spirit from us. Then shall follow
- 23:18Speaker 1: three collects, the first of the day, which shall be
- 23:22Speaker 1: the same that is appointed at the communion. The second
- 23:25Speaker 1: for peace, the third for grace to live well. And
- 23:29Speaker 1: the two last collects shall never alter, but be daily
- 23:33Speaker 1: said at morning prayers throughout all the year, as followeth
- 23:37Speaker 1: all kneeling. The second collect for peace, O God, who
- 23:43Speaker 1: art the author of peace and lover of concord, in
- 23:46Speaker 1: knowledge of whom standeth our eternal life, whose service is
- 23:50Speaker 1: perfect freedom, Defend us, thy humble servants in all the
- 23:55Speaker 1: salts of our enemies, that we, surely, trusting in thy defense,
- 24:00Speaker 1: may not fear the power of any adversaries, through the
- 24:04Speaker 1: might of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. The third collect
- 24:09Speaker 1: for grace, O Lord, our heavenly Father, Almighty and everlasting God,
- 24:16Speaker 1: who hath safely brought us to the beginning of this day,
- 24:20Speaker 1: Defend us in the same with thy mighty power, and
- 24:23Speaker 1: grant that this day we fall into no sin, neither
- 24:27Speaker 1: run into any kind of danger, but that all our doings,
- 24:31Speaker 1: being ordered by Thy government, may be righteous in Thy
- 24:34Speaker 1: sight through Jesus Christ, our Lord Amen. In quires and
