And blessed be thy Name O merciful God that has made such a Covenant of everlasting grace to poor sinners and the children that do believe in thee through Jesus Christ. Thou hast said thou wilt be merciful to all our iniquities and sins and wilt remember them no more These are thy promises and they are all Yea and Amen in Christ Jesus Thou hast made thy servant to hear thy voice in thy Son Thou hast been a merciful God to him and forgiven him all his sins and justified him freely through the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. Who shall condemn us or lay any thing to our charge It is God that justifies who gave himself a ransom for our sins died for our sins is risen again and now sits at the right hand of God ever living and making intercession for us whose blood speaks better things then the blood of Abel His blood cryed for vengeance but the blood of Christ cries for peace and forgiveness God is in Christ reconciling himself unto the world not imputing their trespasses He hath made him to be sin for us who knew no sin that we might be made the righteousness of God in him Blessed be thy Name that thou hast sent thy holy Childe Jesus to be the propitiation not onely for our sins but for the sins of the whole world He hath suffered the just for the unjust that he might bring us unto God O do thou therefore help thy poor servants before thee and all thy children Give us to see the removal of eternal death by the death of the Lord Jesus Let us see thee at peace with us and justifying of us through thy grace All have sinned and come short of thy glory but being justified through the redemption of Christ Jesus whom God hath let form to be a propitiation for the sins of the whole world Thou hast promised that whosoever believeth in the Lord Jesus Christ thy grace thy mercy thy love shall not perish but have everlasting life and thou hast given to thy poor servant exceeding great and precious promises and by thy own Spirit bringing home these premises given him to believe the Records thou hast given of thy Son which beareth witness That God is reconciled to him and well pleased with him in Christ Jesus and given him eternal life And seeing thou hast hid his soul in Jesus Christ when he shall appear then shall we appear with him in glory and be made like to our Lord Jesus Christ By the same power that thou raisest up Jesus Christ from the dead by the same power thou art able to subdue all things There is nothing impossible with God what ever thou hast promised shall be performed Heaven and Earth shall pass away but one title of thy word shall not fail And therefore blessed be thy Name that thou hast revealed these things to thy poor and unworthy Creature that thou art his God and Father that thou wilt never leave him nor forsake him and thou hast hid his life in Christ and wrote his name in the Book of Jesus Christ and he rejoyceth that he knows he is his who is the onely true God Knows thou art well pleased with him and justified him freely from all his sins accepted him in and through the Lord Jesus Christ.

O Lord we pray thee remember all thy People and be good to them and deliver them out of all their troubles and speak peace to them and let them know thou wilt deliver them Keep me to the end and uphold me by thy right hand and so receive me with joy for the sake of thy dear Son Iesus Christ to whom be all honour and power henceforward and for evermore Amen Mr. Gibbs his Prayer O Eternal everliving and everloving God who art a reconciled and loving Father unto thy poor unworthy Creatures before thee and unto all the children whom thou hast called to believe in thee O Lord this is no small priviledge that sinful dust and ashes mortal worms should have to do and to deal with so holy and infinite a God as thou art to make requests unto thee considering the vast disproportion that there is between thee and poor sinners Thou art of purer eyes then to behold any unclean thing in thy presence O Lord. We our selves are nothing but polluted rags and fountains of uncleanness from the crown of the head to the sole of the foot all the faculties of the soul and members of the body are all members of unrighteousness Were it not therefore that thou hast been pleased to give us good hopes and found out a way to hold communion with us which is through the Lord Jesus in whom thou art well pleased in whom thou hast spoke forgiveness of sins to our souls we durst not now stand before thee but thou hast promised that though our sins are as scarlet thou wilt make them as white as snow and though they be as crimson thou wilt make them as wool Thou hast opened a fountain of free-grace and eternal mercy for poor sinners that through the blood of the Lord Jesus they may receive remission forgiveness cleansing and purging from all their sins Thou hast laid an all-sufficient help upon him who is able to save to the uttermost all that come to God by him We have nothing of our selves to bring unto God but sins to pardon and unclean souls to purge Thou hast been pleased to give thy Son and together with him freely to give us all things Thou hast given thy poor servant before thee faith that has brought salvation to his soul Thou hast saved him by thy free-grace not of works but through the mercies and blood of Jesus Christ and hast sprinkled the vertue of the blood of Christ in his conscience in the belief of the truth as it is in Jesus O blessed be thy Name that sent him to seek and to save us from condemnation who is risen with healing in his wings and hast set Christ before us that we should behold him that our sins have pierced Certainly great was that disease that needed such a medicine that nothing could expiate and take away our sins and blot out the hand-writing that was against us but the precious blood of the Lord Jesus Christ as of a Lamb without spot he is now become our peace who has made peace for us through the blood of that his Cross and has made twain one in himself Jew and Gentile He was delivered up for our offences and rose again for our justification We in the knowledge of him being justified by faith
