Gkant,

we beseech Thee, Lord, to our prayers, that all we who enter this temple, (the dedication of which we celebrate on this anni- versary,) may please Thee with full and perfect de- votion of soul and body ; that while we now render to Thee our prayers, we may by Thy help be enabled to attain Thine eternal rewards ; through our Lord Jesus Christ ^ OGOD, Who buildest for Thy Majesty an eternal habitation out of living and elect stones, assist Thy suppliant people, that as Thy Church gains in material extent, it may also be enlarged by spiritual increase ; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
