I give my soul, that has\u00a0much corruption in it by nature, and much of the\u00a0remaining power of sin, into the hands of my almighty\u00a0Saviour, that by his grace he may form all my powers\u00a0anew; that he may subdue every irregular appetite and\u00a0root out every disorderly passion; that he may frame me\u00a0after his own image, fill me with his own grace, and fit\u00a0me for his own glory.
