Blessing
In 1665 when the Great Plague was spreading from London to the countryside, it reached the little village of Eyam in Derbyshire. The inhabitants agreed to stay in their village lest they should carry the infection to other districts. The story illustrates Christ's commandment: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself (St. Matthew 22, v. 39).

Anthem: Glorious and powerful God
(Stanford)
Glorious and powerful God,
We understand thy dwelling is on high
Above the starry sky.
Thou dwell'st not in stone temples made with hand;
But in the flesh hearts of the sons of men
To dwell is thy delight.
Near hand. though out of sight.
We give of thine own hand. Thy acceptation
Is very life and blood, To all actions good.
Whenever here or hence our supplication,
From pure and with unfeigned hearts.
To thee ascends,
Be present with thy grace, Shew us thy loving face.
Oh, down on us full showers of mercy send.
Let thy love's burning beams Dry up all our sin's streams.
Arise, 0 Lord, and come into thy rest,
Both now and evermore thy name be blest.
Founder and foundation Of endless* habitation.
Prayers
