O God, you declare your almighty power most chiefly in showing mercy and pity: mercifully grant to us such a measure of your  grace, that we, running the way of your commandments, may receive your gracious promises, and be made partakers of your heavenly treasure; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen
