English

Lord have mercy upon us, kindly accept our service
Sending from Thy treasu-ry, kindness, mercy – and pardon.

Grant me Oh Lord, while I stand, keeping vigil before Thee
Should I fall to slumber’s hand, guard thou me from – sinful sleep.

If I trespass while awake, by thy grace absolve me Lord
If I transgress – in my sleep, pardon with Thy – compa-ssion

By the Cross ( +) of Thy meekness, grant me, Lord, a restful sleep
Deliver me from – evil dreams, and from sinful thoughts, Oh Lord!

Through the night govern me, Lord Grant to me a – peaceful sleep;
Let not Evil- and his thoughts, should have domain – over me.

Grant to me Thy bright Angel, that he may guard – all my limbs;
Save me from un-holy lust, by Thy Body – that I ate.

While I lie and sleep in calm, may Thy blood be – my guardian;
Granting freedom – to my soul, which is but Thy – own image.

Thy hand shaped me, Oh my Lord, shadow me with – Thy right hand,
Thy mercy be a for-tress, shielding me Lord – all around.

While my body rests and sleeps, may Thy power – keep vigil;
Let my sleep in – Thy presence, pleasing like a sweet incense.

Let not evil touch my bed, by Thy mother’s prayer for me;
By Thy pleasing sacrifice, keep Satan from – hurting me.

Fulfill Thy word with me, Lord, and guard my life by Thy Cross ( + );
Waking I shall – praise Thy name, for Thou loved me – in weakness.

Grant Oh Lord, by Thy mercy, that I hear and – do Thy will;
Grant me an eve – full of peace, and a night of- righteous-ness.

Oh our Savior, Jesus Christ, who is indeed the true light;
Thy honor stays – in the light, worshipped by all – sons of light.

Jesus, Savior of the world, who stays and lives – in the light;
to Thee praise, on – us mercy, in this world and – that to come.

Praise to Thee Lord, praise to Thee, praise a thousand thousand fold;
Tens of thousands – we praise Thee, to Thee praise on – us mercy.

Praise to whom Watchers adore; and heavenly Angels serve
Lord of Watchers and Angels; accept our supplications

Praise to the One who is three; and to the three who are One.
Father, Son and Holy Ghost; who is the One and true God.
