A THANKSGIVING after meate

Deut. 8.10.11. When thou hast eaten and filled thy self, then thou shalt giue thanks vnto the Lorde thy God, 11. And thou shalt beware that thou forget not the Lord thy God, and neglect his Commaundements.

O Lord God and heuenly Father, we giue thee thanks for thy gret and infinite benefites, which thou bestowest vpon vs miserable sinners, of thine incomprehensible mercy at all times, in that thou vphouldest vs in this mortall life, furnishing vnto vs al things that are necessarie, but cheifly that thou vouchsafest to regenerate vs by the holy doctrine of thy Gospell, vnto the hope of a better life. Wee beseech thee mercifull God and Father, not to suffer our mindes to be occupied in these earthly & transitory things, but that they may looke vp, and seeke the things that are in heauen, waiting for the comming of our Sauior Christ Iesus, when he appeares in the clouds to deliuer vs. So be it. Our Father &c.
