Question
What is thy only comfort in Life and Death?
Answer
That both in Soul and1 Body, whether I live or dye,2 I am not mine own, but3 belong wholly unto my most faithful Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ: who by his most precious Blood4 fully satisfying for all my Sins, hath5 delivered me from all the power of the Devil, and so6 preserveth me, that without the will of my Heavenly Father not so much as an Hair may7 fall from my Head; yea all things8 must serve for my safety: wherefore by his Spirit also he9 assureth me of everlasting Life, and10 maketh me ready and prepared, that henceforth I may live to him.
