Edition notes: The source uses alto and tenor clefs for the alto and tenor parts respectively. The parts are identified in the source as Canto - Alto - Tenor - Bass - Organ. The organ part is given in full, without figuring, in the source: the title page refers to 'an Accompaniment for the Organ, or Piano Forte'. The first- and second-time bar markings at bars 22-23 have been added editorially: the source has a repeat at this point, but without any shortening of the syllable '-vants' on the second time round. The natural signs on the B in the vocal bass and keyboard accompaniment left-hand part on beat 3 of bar 13 have been added editorially: these notes have no accidental in the source.

Let thy merciful ears, O Lord,
be open to the prayers of thy humble servants;
and that they may obtain their petitions,
make them to ask such things as shall please thee;
through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
