I hereby renew the covenant of my holy baptism, and renounce, both now
and forever, the devil and all his works and all his ways, and this
ungodly and wicked world, together with my own sinful flesh and blood.
Into Thy hands, O Father, Son and Holy Ghost, I commend my body and soul.
Into Thy care I commend my temporal, spiritual and eternal welfare, and
the welfare of those dear and near to me. I commit myself entirely into
Thy care, mercy, love and faithfullness, O Thou my Father! I clothe
myself with Thy merits, with Thy precious blood and wounds and Thy
blessed communion, O Lord Jesus, my Redeemer! I commend myself entirely
to Thy merciful guidance, to Thy power, light and comfort, O Holy Spirit,
most blessed Comforter! O Triune God! Thou art mine, I am Thine; Thou art
my Father, I am Thy child; Thou art my shepherd, I am Thy lamb; Thou art
my Lord, I am Thine own. O my God! How can I sufficiently thank Thee!
Thou hast regarded me very highly and hast bestowed upon me, a poor
sinful being, salvation in Jesus Christ, through the blessed regeneration
in the sacrament of Holy Baptism. O do Thou preserve me in this Thy Grace
unto death. Grant, my God, that this my salvation may be my comfort at
all times against satan, sin and death, and that I may value it more
highly than all worldly honor and earthly fame, and diligently endeavor
to lead a holy and godly life in accordance with it until a happy death
in Christ Jesus. Do Thou, in mercy, grant this my prayer, O my Father,
for the sake of Thy dear Son Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy
Spirit. For all which, all honor, praise and thanksgiving be unto Thee,
the Triune God, forevermore. Amen.
