49. God in Trinity, Give Me Grace

[_]

Cambridge Univ. MS. Ii. 6. 43

[L]orde, þat art of myȝtis moost,
ffadir & sone & holy goost,
God in trynyte,
Thou ȝeue me grace daye & nyȝt
The to serue with all my myȝt,
lord, y be-seke þee.
And out of synne my lyf to lede,
That y þe fende mow not drede
Whan y schall hennys wende.
In heuen blys þou ȝeue me grace
The to see face to face,
Worlde withouten ende.
AmeN.
