For the Hallowing of the Sabbath
ALMIGHTY God, Who after the creation of the world didst rest from all Thy works and sanctify a day of rest for Thy creatures, grant to us, we beseech Thee, that, putting away from us all earthly cares and anxieties, we may this day worthily approach the services of Thy sanctuary. But grant also that, being under grace and under law to Christ, we may be enabled to hallow all our days by living in Thy constant fear and love, and may in Thy peace enjoy a perpetual sabbath of the soul ; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
