Philip Schaff

“ Thou, Master almighty, didst create all things for Thy name’s sake; Thou gavest food and drink to men for enjoyment, that they might give thanks to Thee; but to us Thou didst freely give spiritual food and drink and life eternal through Thy Servant. ”

“ Remember, Lord, Thy Church, to deliver it from all evil and to make it perfect in Thy love, and gather it from the four winds, sanctified for Thy kingdom which Thou hast prepared for it; [4] for Thine is the power and the glory for ever. 6. Let grace come, and let this world pass away. [5] Hosanna to the God (Son) [6] of David! If any one is holy, let him come; if any one is not so, let him repent. [7] Maran atha. [8] Amen. 7. But permit the prophets to make Thanksgiving as much as they desire. [9]
