Philip Doddridge: Piercing Heaven – Puritan’s Prayers

Reach out your mighty arm, O Lord God, show your strength in the sight of all the nations.

Spread your salvation on the hearts of multitudes, that they may believe and turn to you.

May the great Savior of Israel be found by those who seek you not, and through the surprising condescension of your grace, show yourself to those who do not inquire of you.

May your ancient people not only be provoked to anger, but awakened to follow the same path, and put in their claim for those blessings which you by your Son have stooped low to offer all the Gentiles.

Amen.
