“Keep Thy Church in Thy True Religion”: The Collect for the Fifth Sunday after the Epiphany

Really late with this this week; but here is the Collect for the Fifth Sunday after the Epiphany from the Order of Worship for the Reformed Church in the United States.

The Fifth Sunday after the Epiphany

THE COLLECT

O LORD, we beseech Thee to keep thy Church and household continually in thy true religion; that they who do lean only upon the hope of thy heavenly grace, may evermore be defended by thy mighty power; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with Thee and the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen.
