THE THIRD PART OF MANS THANKFVLNES

  1. What is the third petition?

    Thy wil be done in earth as it is in heauen: that is, Grant that we and al men, renouncing & forsaking our owne wil, maie readily & without any grudging ; obey thy wil, which is only holy: and that so euerie of vs may faithfully and cheerfully performe that duty and charge which thou hast committed vnto vs, euen as the blessed Angels doe in heauen.
