7. At Seven O'clock.

O God, heavenly Father, who didst rest on the seventh day of the

creation, do Thou also rest and keep Thy sabbath in my heart, Thou, who

art my soul's only rest and comfort. O Lord Jesus, let the seventh and

last word, that Thou didst utter upon the cross, also be my last word in

the hour of death, that I may commend my spirit into Thy hands. O God,

Holy Ghost, Thou heavenly teacher, Thou spirit of prayer, do Thou kindle

in me constant devotion to prayer, that in the Lord's prayer, in the

seven penitential Psalms, and other prayers and sighs, I may bring my

wants to God, and be graciously heard by Him. Amen.
