sleep not in sin lest the sleep of death surprize thee the hour is certain in nothing but uncertainties For sure thou must die yet thou knowest not on what day nor in what place nor how thou shalt be disposed when death must be entertained O Lord how many thousand Bills of Mortality have passed over our heads and we little or nothing regard them who knows but some of us may fill up the next weeks account and be forc'd to render up our accounts before the Just Judg of all the Earth of all our deeds done in the flesh whether they be good or evil He that once thought to begin to take his ease was fain that very night whether he would or no to make his end would you have thought this He but now flourished like a green bay tree his thoughts full of mirth his soul of ease but I passed by and lo he was goue Gone whither his body to the grave his soul to hell whose turn may be next God only knows who knoweth all But whosoever we be that go on in a course of sin in the name of God let us seriously bethink our selves of Mortality how many have we heard of that went well to bed over night for ought any man could tell and yet have been found dead the next mo●ning O help us to repent of all our sins by crying and sighing and sorrowing for sin It may be this night and that is not long to come but we may sleep our last in this world O keep us that we go not to bed with a conscience laden with sin O how should we take any rest or sleep with the brother of death when we lie down in danger of eternal death O there is no more but a breath one breath and no more no more but a step one step and no more Oh were not this lamentable that some One of us who are standing or sitting here should this night sleep his last and to morrow have his body carried to his Grave yea and before to morrow morning which the good Lord in mercy forbid have his soul cast from a bed of Feathers into a bed of Fire And yet alas alas if any of us should die this night in our sins or in an unregenerated state thus will it be with whomsoever we be To morrow may our bodies be cold under earth and our souls frying in the flames of hell 'T is good for us all to expect death every day and by this means death foreseen cannot possibly be sudden No 't is he dies suddenly that dies unpreparedly Watch therefore saith our Saviour be ever in a readiness and as we tender the everlasting wellfare of our poor souls let us learn that Lesson of our blessed Saviour not to lay up for our selves treasures on earth where Moth and Rust doth corrupt and where Thieves break through and steal but lay up for our selves treasure in heaven where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt and where Thieves do not break thro' and steal it is those treasures those stocks of grace that will last us for ever which is a circumspect walking that Fervency of spirit that Zeal of good works that purity of conscience St. John speaketh of which is the property of every true hearted profe●sor It is the work the life the power of that prayer that the rest of our life hereafter may be pure and holy O that we could lay up such heavenly provision against the day of caamity if while it is called to day we could make our peace with our peace with our heavenly Father by an humble exercise of repentance If in this time of grace we could purchase Gods Favour and those rarest Jewels of Faith and a good conscience if now before we come to appear at that dreadful Tribunal that we could be so happy as to make God and Christ our Friends in the Court of Heaven O how wellcom and how blessed then would our death be unto us come it never so suddenly still should death find us ready and if ready no matter how suddenly yea tho it were this night Oh help us seriously to consider what Jesus Christ did and suffered for us and for our sins O how was he sorrowful even unto death with exceeding sorrow which made him pray that the cup might pass from him yet with submission to his Fathers will and all to save our poor lost and undone souls O the riches and love and the free grace of Jesus Christ to us Oh the earnestness of his prayers and the agony he was in not drops of water only but his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground O how was he buffeted spit on reviled mocked and scourged sor our sins Oh how was the chastisement of our sins laid upon him and by his stripes are we healed And dear Father do thou be graciously pleased to keep up in us an humble remembrance of this abundant love wherewith the Lord Jesus Christ hath bound us he was crowned with Thorns for our sins that we through his merits might be crown'd with glory in the Kingdom of Heaven O unspeakable love how were his tender hands and feet nailed to the Cross his holy unspotted breast peirced with a spear and his dearest hearts blood let forth and all to save our poor souls from the pit of eternal destruction O let us consider the great necessity we are in in not looking unto this Jesus we have need of Christ we have need that he pray in us and need that he pray for us unto our heavenly Father we have need that he work in us and need that he work for us of his plessed will and pleasure We have need that he present us and ours blameless before his Fathers presence in life and death and at the Judgment day O Lord there is not a moment in our lives wherein we stand not in continual need of Jesus Christ O then let our necessities drive us to Christ and mind us of Christ And as it hath been our great misery in departing from God dear Father we beseech thee to cause us now to lay out all our strength by the blessed assistance of thy holy spirit of grace to the uttermost of our power to gain a reconciliation with God to close with him on his own terms propounded to us in the Gospel And dear Father be pleased to raise up in us a love and a delight in the keeping holy thy Sabbaths here on earth that so we may be fitted and prepared to keep an ever lasting Sabbath with thee in Heaven Dear Lord pardon cleanse purge O purifie and make new our inward man by thine Almighty power subdue our corruptions and renew our Natures and bring us near unto thy self by the gracious workings of thy blessed spirit O forget not thy loving kindnesses of old but reach O reach our souls by the blessed spirit of thy grace O let us feel the power of thy

O Lord do thou make haste For to deliver me Make haste to help me O my God I humbly pray to thee Let them confounded be that after my Soul seek Let them be turned back with shame And in confusion weep Let them be turned back With a reward of shame That desire my hurt and say Aha reproach his Name Let all that seek thee Gladly in thee rejoice Let such as love thy Salvation Sing with a chereful voice Let God be magnified Continually and say Thou art my Help in all distress On thee I 'll trust alway Make haste to me O God I am needy and poor Thou art my help and deliverer Lord make no stay therefore Psalm 71. O Lord in thee I put my trust O let me not confusion see Incline thine Ear and save my Soul In Righteousness deliver me Be thou my Habitation strong Where I 'll continually resort In subjection to thy commands O save me for thou art my fort From the hands of unrighteous men In mercy Lord deliver me Out of the reach of wicked men Who cruel are Lord keep me free For thou O Lord God art my hope Even from my Youth thou art my stay By thee have I been holden up Even from the Womb unto this day Out of my Mothers Bowels thou Hast taken thence and set me free Therefore will I continually My Praises offer up to thee To many I a wonder am But thou art still my refuge strong O let my Mouth be fill'd with praise Of thy Honour all the day long The Second Part. O Cast me not off in old Age Forsake me not when strength doth fail Mine Enemies watch and observe How over me they may prevail God hath forsaken him they say And there is none that can him save Take him and Persecute his Soul And bring him down into the Grave But thou O Lord make haste to help Be not far from me in distress In mercy save me O my God Then I 'll rejoyce with thankfulness Confounded and consumed be Those Enemies of my poor Soul Let them be clothed with reproach That seek my Heart without controul But I continually will hope And yet will praise thee more and more My mouth shall shew thy Righteousness And thy Salvation the World o're I will go in thy strength O God And even of thine only will I Make mention of thy Righteousness And wondrous Works declare on high O God do thou instruct me still As in my youth didst undertake Now when my Head is Old and Grey O do not my poor Soul forsake Psalm 86.
