We worship Thee in Thy glorified humanity, as God in Christ, the divinity in the humanity, reconciling the world unto Thyself, not imputing our trespasses unto us. O how unbounded was Thy love in the great work of redemption! Neither word nor deed on our part can sufficiently testify our gratitude. We praise Thee, O Lord, we acknowledge Thee to be our Saviour; heaven and earth are full of the majesty of Thy glory. Thou hast rescued us from the power of our spiritual enemies, Thou hast restrained their infernal influence. Thy providence hedges us round about, Thy wisdom guides, Thy omnipotence sustains and defends us, and Thy love and mercy has prepared and set up a kingdom, where, if we are faithiul unto death, we shall receive and enjoy a crown of life. O how great is Thy goodness, and how great Thy mercy! We glorify Thee, O Lord Jesus Christ. Thou only art worthy to receive adoration and praise. Amen. Our Father, etc.
