Almighty God, Lord of heaven and earth: We beseech thee to pour forth thy blessing upon this land, and to give us a fruitful season; that we, constantly receiving thy bounty, may evermore give thanks unto thee in thy holy Church; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
¶ Or this:
O Almighty God, who didst create the earth for man, and man for thy glory: Mercifully hear the prayers of thy people, that both the earth may yield her increase and the good seed of thy Word may bring forth abundantly; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
¶ Or this:
Almighty God, who hast blessed the earth that it should be fruitful and bring forth abundantly whatsoever is needful for the life of man: Prosper, we beseech thee, the labours of the husbandman, and grant such seasonable weather that we may gather in the fruits of the earth and proclaim thy great goodness with thanksgiving; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
