But now, O Lord, thou art our Father Notwithstanding all this, thou art our Father, having both created and adopted us; therefore pity us thy children; we are the clay, and thou our potter We are in thy hands as clay in the hands of the potter: thou canst form us, and dispose of us as thou pleasest. And we will not quarrel with thee, however thou art pleased to deal with us. We are all the work of thy hands Therefore forget us not, forsake us not, but spare, and preserve, and save us. Be not wroth with us very sore But let thy anger be mitigated by the clemency and compassion of a father. Neither remember iniquity for ever Thou hast been angry with us a long time, be not so for ever. Behold, &c. we are thy people Thy peculiar people, Isaiah 63:19. Another argument to enforce the former petition.
