O Eternal God and King of all creation, Who hast vouchsafed me
to arrive at this hour, forgive me the sins that I have committed
this day in deed, word, and thought; and cleanse, O Lord, my
lowly soul of all impurity of flesh and spirit, and grant me, O Lord,
to pass the sleep of this night in peace; that, rising from my lowly
bed, I may please Thy most holy name all the days of my life, and
thwart the enemies, fleshly and bodiless, that war against me.
And deliver me, O Lord, from vain thoughts and evil desires which
defile me. For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory:
of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, now, and
ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
O Ruler of all, Word of the Father, O Jesus Christ, Thou Who art
perfect: for the sake of the plenitude of Thy mercy, never depart
from me, but always remain in me, Thy servant. O Jesus, Good
Shepherd of Thy sheep, deliver me not over to the sedition of the
serpent, and leave me not to the will of Satan, for the seed of
corruption is in me. But do Thou, O Lord, worshipful God, Holy
King, Jesus Christ, as I sleep, guard me by the Unwaning Light,
Thy Holy Spirit, by Whom Thou didst sanctify Thy disciples. O
Lord, grant me, thine unworthy servant, Thy salvation upon my
bed. Enlighten my mind with the light of understanding of Thy
Holy Gospel; my soul, with the love of Thy Cross; my heart, with
the purity of Thy word; my body, with Thy passionless passion.
Keep my thoughts in Thy humility, and raise me up at the proper
time for Thy glorification. For most glorified art Thou together with
Thine unoriginate Father, and the Most Holy Spirit, unto the ages.
Amen.
