INTERCESSION
Wash you. make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil; learn to do well: seek judgment, relieve the oppressed. judge the fatherless, plead for the widow. Come now, and let us reason together, said the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they will be as white as snow: though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool < Isaiah l, 16-18). Spare us. O Lord, for our sins are many. Correct Us in Thy righteousness, and preserve us in Thy mercy, lest we go the way of the nations that have forsaken Thee Deliver us, we beseech Thee, from the sins that destroy us, and recall us to the faith wherein our fathers honoured and served Thee, and the righteousness through which Thou madest our nation great. Turn us again. O God, and cause Thy face lo shine, and we shall bo saved.
