Prayers for the Parliament .

GOd be merciful vnto vs and blesse vs : Psalm . ●… and shewe vs the light of his countenance , and be mercifull vnto vs.

That thy way may be knowen vpon earth , thy sauing health among all Nations .

Let the people praise thee , O God : yea , let all the people praise thee .

O let the Nations reioyce and be glad , for thou shalt iudge the folke righteously : and gouerne the Nations vpon earth .

Let the people praise thee , O God : let all the people praise thee .

Then shal the earth bring forth her increase : and God , euen our owne God , shall giue vs his blessing .

God shall blesse vs : and all the ends of the world shal feare him .

After the Psalme , these Suffrages .

THE Lord be with you .

And with thy spirit .

Let vs pray . Lord haue mercy vpon vs. Christ haue mercie vpon vs. Lord haue mercie vpon vs.

Our Father which art in heauen , &c.

❧ Then shall follow three Collects .
The first for the Kings Maiestie .

O Lord our heauenly Father , high and mighty , King of Kings , Lord of Lords , the onely ruler of Princes , which doest from thy Throne behold all the dwellers vpon earth , most heartily we beseech thee with thy fauor to behold our most gracious Soueraign Lord King Iames , and so replenish him with the grace of thy holy Spirit , that he may alway encline to thy will , and walke in thy way : endue him plenteously with heauenly giftes , graunt him in health and wealth long to liue , strengthen him , that hee may vanquish and ouercome all his enemies , and finally after this life he may attaine euerlasting ioy and felicitie , through Iesus Christ our Lord . Amen .

The second Collect .

ALmightie God , which by thy holy Prophet Dauid art most truly said to stand in the congregation of Princes , and giuest iudgement in the middest of the mighty men of the world , and through whose authoritie Princes doe reigne , Law makers do discerne iust things , Lords beare rule , and all Iudges of the earth execute iudgement , and for that commeth of thee all counsaile and equitie , all vnderstanding and strength : Grant vnto vs here gathered together in thy Name , that Wisedome which is alwaies assistant to thy seat , to giue knowledge to our feeble and ignorant mindes . Send downe ( we beseech thee ) the same Wisedome out of thy holy heauens , and from the throne of thy Maiestie , that it may be now with vs , and labour with vs , whereby we surely knowing what is acceptable vnto thee , may be led through it to the debating , weighing , and finall determining of those matters , by the which thy blessed Name may be glorified , thy Catholique Church of England confirmed & increased , the Kings assurance established , the common tranquillitie of this Realme safely maintained , and last of all , all estates and people therof , in true obedience and charitie vnited and knit together . Grant this , O God , for thy onely Sonnes sake Iesus Christ our Lord . Amen .

A Thankesgiuing for peace and Victory .

O Almightie God , which art a strong Tower of defence vnto thy seruants against the face of their enemies : wee yeeld thee praise and Thanksgiuing for our deliuerance from those great and apparant dangers , wherwith we were compassed in this place : Wee acknowledge it thy goodnes , that we were not deliuered ouer as a prey vnto them : beseeching thee still to continue such thy mercies towards vs , that all the world may know , that thou art our Sauiour and Mighty deliuerer , through Iesus Christ our Lord . Amen .

The third Collect .

PReuent vs , O Lord , in all our doings , with thy most Gracious fauour , and further vs with thy continuall helpe , that in all our works begunne , continued , and ended in thee , we may glorifie thy holy Name , and finally by thy mercy obtaine euerlasting life through Iesus Christ our Lord .

Then shall follow the Benediction , as thus .

2. CORINTH . 13. THe Grace of our Lord Iesus Christ , and the loue of God , and the fellowship of the holy Ghost , be with vs all euermore . Amen .
