[i] After the sermon shall follow a public paraphrase of the Lord'sPrayer, with an exhortation to those who are minded to come to the Sacrament,in this, or some other better, fashion, as follows: 'Dear friends in Christ,as we are here gathered together, in the name of the Lord, to receive Hisholy Testament, I exhort you, first, to lift your hearts to God and to saywith me 'Our Father' according as Christ our Lord hath taught us, faithfullypromising that we shall be heard: ['Our Father,' &c., in paraphrase]. Next, Iexhort you in Christ that with right faith ye take heed to the Testament ofChrist: and specially that ye hold fast in your hearts the Word wherebyChrist gives us His body and blood for remission of sins; that ye bethink youof, and thank Him for, the infinite love which He has shown us in thatthrough His blood He has redeemed us from God's wrath, from sin, death, andhell: and then take to yourselves outwardly the bread and wine, which is Hisbody and blood, for an assurance and pledge thereof. In such wise will we, inHis name and as He commanded in His own Word, handle and use His Testament.'Whether this paraphrase and exhortation should take place in the pulpit,immediately after the sermon, or at the altar, I leave free to every man'sdiscretion. . . .
