ALMIGHTY and  everlasting God, the  Comforter  of  the sorrowful, and  the  support  of  those who are  afflicted,  give  ear  to  the prayers of  such  as  call  on  Thee in their  tribulation;  that,  finding Thy mercy  present  with  them  in their  necessities,  their  mourning may be  turned  into  joy:  through, etc.

GOD, who  justifieth  the  wicked that repent,  and  desirest  not the death  of  a  sinner,  we  humbly beseech Thy  majesty  to  defend  Thy servants with  Thy  heavenly  grace, who trust  in  Thy  mercy,  and  preserve them  by  Thy  continual  protection;  that  they  may  persevere in Thy  service,  and  by  no  temptations be  ever  separated  from  Thee: through, etc.
