Overview

Excerpt from An Order of Family Prayer for Every Day in the Week: And for the Commemoration of the Holy Days and Season of the Church If then no Universal Book of Family Prayers has been, or probably can be constructed, so much greater reason is there to give to the religious community every opportunity for selection; and thus possibly all tastes may be suited, and all wants supplied. It must be Observed that this little volume is not in tended to be a substitute for the Book of Common Prayer in Family Worship, but an humble companion to it, and its presence in the hands of each member of the family, for actual use in the responsive services Of the Psalter and in the metre Psalms and Hymns, is constantly im plied. In some families, and in all families at certain times, it may not be convenient to go through the order of devotional exercises exactly as here prescribed; and therefore certain parts, as the Psalter, or one of the les sons, or the singing, or all, may be omitted at the option of those who conduct the worship and a selection from the collects may be made in such a manner as to conform to the particular arrangements of each family where the Book may be introduced. But should the whole order, as laid down, be followed out, it is believed that the time occupied could rarely interfere with any just claims of worldly occupation. Little danger is there that these claims will suffer detriment in the present state Of society. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
