The Episcopal Abbey afar itself from the Abbey of England in 1789, accepting been accustomed in the United States in 1607. Its adoration book, appear in 1790, had as its sources, the 1662 English book and the 1764 Scottish Celebration (see above) which Abbey Seabury of Connecticut had brought over afterward his approbation in Aberdeen in 1784, absolute elements of ceremony (Perry 1922). The beginning to the 1789 Book of Accepted Adoration says "this Abbey is far from intending to abandon from the Abbey of England in any capital point of doctrine, discipline, or worship...further than bounded affairs require." There were some notable differences. For example, in the Accord annual afterwards the words of academy there follows a Adoration of Oblation from 1549, but into which were amid the words 'which we now action unto thee' (in baby caps) with advertence to the 'holy gifts'. An epiclesis was included, as in the Scottish book, admitting acclimatized to accommodated advanced objections. Overall the book was modelled in the English Adoration Book, the Convention accepting resisted attempts at abatement and afterlight (McGarvey & Gibson 1907).

Further revisions occurred in 1892 and 1928, in which accessory changes were made, removing, for instance, some of Cranmer's Exhortations and introducing such innovations as prayers for the dead.

In 1979, a added abundant afterlight was made. There were now two rites for the best accepted services, the aboriginal that kept best of the accent of 1928, and the added application alone abreast accent (some of it anew composed, and some acclimatized from the earlier language). Abounding changes were fabricated in the rubrics and the shapes of the services, which were about fabricated for both the acceptable and abreast accent versions. However, there was arguably a greater amount of chain than was the case in England, which may annual for the actuality that all the books of the series, from 1790 to 1979 absorb the aforementioned title. The 1979 book owes a acceptable accord to the August Movement and to the 19th aeon Catholic revival. Abounding traditionalists, both Anglo-Catholics and Evangelicals, acquainted alienated by the apostolic changes fabricated in the 1979 BCP, and in 1991 The Abbey of the Acceptable Shepherd in Rosemont, PA appear a book entitled, the Anglican Annual Book which is "a acceptable accent adjustment of the 1979 Book of Accepted Adoration calm with the Psalter or Psalms of David and Added Devotions."

Use of the 1928 Book of Accepted Adoration is currently discouraged. Article X of the Canons of the Episcopal Abbey provides that "the Book of Accepted Prayer, as now accustomed or afterlife adapted by the ascendancy of this Church, shall be in use in all the Dioceses of this Church," which, of course, is a advertence to the 1979 Book of Accepted Prayer, but abounding parishes4 still use it either consistently or occasionally, for pastoral sensitivity, for doctrinal affidavit and for the adorableness of its language.

The Book of Common Adoration has had a abundant access on a cardinal of added denominations.

In particular, abounding Christian adoration books accept fatigued on the Collects for the Sundays of the Churches Year—mostly translated by Cranmer from a advanced ambit of Christian traditions, but including a cardinal of aboriginal compositions—which are broadly accustomed as masterpieces of aeroembolism august construction.

John Wesley, an Anglican priest whose revivalist admonition led to the conception of Methodism wrote, "I accept there is no Celebration in the world, either in age-old or avant-garde language, which breathes added of a solid, scriptural, rational allegiance than the Common Adoration of the Abbey of England."

In the United Methodist Church, the celebration for Eucharistic celebrations is about identical to what is begin in the Book of Common Prayer, as are some of the added liturgies and services.

Derision of the Adoration Book or its capacity "in any interludes, plays, songs, rhymes, or by added accessible words" was a bent answerability beneath the 1559 Act of Uniformity,7 and appropriately Shakespeare avoids too absolute reference; but Noble decidedly identifies the account of the Psalter according to the Great Bible adaptation defined in the Adoration Book, as the biblical book breeding the better cardinal of Biblical references in Shakespeare's plays. Noble begin a absolute of 157 allusions to the Psalms in the plays of the First Folio, apropos to 62 abstracted Psalms—all, save one, of which he affiliated to the adaptation in the Psalter, rather than those in the Geneva Bible or Bishops' Bible. In addition, there are a baby cardinal of absolute allusions to august texts in the Adoration Book; e.g. Henry VIII 3:2 area Wolsey states "Vain Pomp and Celebrity of this World, I abhorrence ye!", a bright advertence to the rite of Public Baptism; area the Godparents are asked "Doest thou abdicate the vaine pompe and celebrity of the worlde..?"

More recently, P.D. James acclimated phrases from the Book of Common Adoration and fabricated them into bestselling titles—Devices and Desires and The Children of Men, while Alfonso Cuarón's 2006 blur Children of Men placed the byword assimilate cinema marquees worldwide.
