The Pattenmakers’ Collect
Almighty God, from whom all good gifts do flow, we pray for the continued blessing on the Worshipful Company of Pattenmakers – the Master, the Wardens and Court of Assistants, and all those admitted to the Freedom and the Livery – that each according to individual opportunity may offer such service and fellowship that the Company may flourish and bring glory to thy holy name; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Company’s Grace
(fromThe Laudi Spirituali, AD 1545)
For these and all Thy mercies given,
We bless and praise thy Name O Lord:
May we receive them with thanksgiving,
Ever trusting in Thy word;
To Thee alone be honour, glory;
Now and henceforth for evermore.
