Almighty God, our heavenly Father, without whom no word or work of ours availeth, but who dost accept the gifts of our hands for the service and beautifying of thy sanctuary: Have respect unto the prayers of us thy servants as we dedicate this . . . to thy glory. Accept and consecrate it, we pray thee, as we set it apart from all common and unhallowed uses, ever to be employed for the service of thy Church and the honour of thy holy name; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
