May God take pity upon us, and blesse us;* may he send forth the light of his face upon us, and take pity on us.
That we may know thy ways on earth* among all nations thy salvation.
May people acknowledge thee, O God:* may all people acknowledge thee.
Let nations reioice, and be glad, because thou iudgest people with equity,* and doest guide nations on the earth.
May people acknowledge thee, O God, may all people acknowledge thee,* the earth has sent forth her fruit.
May God blesse us, that God who is ours: may that God blesse us,* and may all the bounds of the earth feare him.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son,* and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, and now, and ever,* and for ever, and ever. Amen.
Then the King reades this Prayer:
Almighty eternal God, who by the most copious gifts of thy grace, flowing from the unexhausted fountain of thy bounty, hast been graciously pleased, for the comfort of mankind, continually to grant us many and various meanes to relieve us in our miseries; and art willing to make those the instruments and channels of thy gifts, and to grace those persons with more excellent favours, whom thou hast raised to the Royal dignity; to the end that, as by Thee they Reign, and govern others, so by Thee they may prove beneficial to them, and bestow thy favours on the people: Graciously heare our prayers, and favourably receive those vows we powre forth with humility, that Thou mayst grant to us, who beg with the same confidence the favour which our Ancestours, by their hopes in thy mercy have obtained: through Christ our Lord. Amen.
