id, then these Prayers instead of the Prayers for the King and
for the Royal Family at Mattins or Evensong_.

O Lord our God, who upholdest and governest all things by the word
of thy power; Receive our humble prayers for our Sovereign Lord
_GEORGE_, _as on this day_, set over us by thy grace and providence
to be our King; and, together with him, bless, we beseech thee, our
gracious Queen _Mary_, _Alexandra_ the Queen Mother, _Edward_ Prince
of Wales, and all the Royal Family; that they, ever trusting in thy
goodness, protected by thy power, and crowned with thy gracious and
endless favour, may long continue before thee in peace and safety,
joy and honour, and after death may obtain everlasting life and
glory; by the merits and mediation of Christ Jesus our Saviour,
who with thee and the Holy Ghost liveth and reigneth ever one
God, world without end. _Amen_.

Almighty God, who rulest over all the kingdoms of the world, and
dost order them according to thy good pleasure; We yield thee
unfeigned thanks, for that thou wast pleased, _as on this day_,
to set thy Servant our Sovereign Lord, King _GEORGE_, upon the
throne of this Realm. Let thy wisdom be his guide, and let thine arm
strengthen him; let truth and justice, holiness and righteousness,
peace and charity abound in his days. Direct all his counsels and
endeavours to thy glory, and the welfare of his subjects; give us
grace to obey him cheerfully for conscience sake, and let him
always possess the hearts of his people; let his reign be long
and prosperous, and crown him with everlasting life in the world
to come; through Jesus Christ our Lord. _Amen_.

_A Prayer for Unity_.

O God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, our only Saviour, the
Prince of Peace; Give us grace seriously to lay to heart the great
dangers we are in by our unhappy divisions. Take away all hatred
and prejudice, and whatsoever else may hinder us from godly union
and concord: that, as there is but one Body, and one Spirit, and
one hope of our calling, one Lord, one Faith, one Baptism, one God
and Father of us all, so we may henceforth be all of one heart,
and of one soul, united in one holy bond of truth and peace, of
faith and charity, and may with one mind and one mouth glorify
thee; through Jesus Christ our Lord. _Amen_.
