Richard Baxter: Piercing Heaven – Puritan’s Prayers

With trust and hope I commit my spirit into the hands of Jesus my glorified Redeemer and Intercessor—and through his work into the hands of God my reconciled Father.

You are infinite eternal Spirit, light, life, and love. You are most great and wise and good. You are the God of nature, grace, and glory, of whom and through whom and to whom are all things.

You are my absolute owner, ruler, and benefactor; whose I am, and whom I serve, seek, and trust—though imperfectly.

To you be glory forever,

Amen.
