and the day is almost over.
Let Your light scatter the darkness

You are worthy of being praised
with pure voices forever.
O Son of God, O Giver of life:
the universe proclaims Your glory.

THANKSGIVING FOR LIGHT

Blessed are You, O Lord, our God,
L
king of the universe,
who led Your people Israel by a pillar of cloud by day
and a pillar of fire by night.
Enlighten our darkness by the light of Your Christ;
may His Word be a lamp to our feet
and a light to our path;
for You are merciful,

and You love Your whole creation

and we, Your creatures, glorify You,
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Let my prayer rise before You as incense,
C
the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
Set a watch before my mouth, O Lord,
@
and guard the door of my lips.
Let not my heart incline to any evil thing;
!
let me not be occupied in wickedness with evildoers.
But my eyes are turned to You, O God;
@
in You I take refuge.
Strip me not of my life.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son
C
and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning,
is now, and will be forever. Amen.

born of the house of His servant David.
Through His holy prophets He promised of old
that He would save us from our enemies,
from the hands of all who hate us.
He promised to show mercy to our fathers
and to remember His holy covenant.
This was the oath He swore to our father Abraham:
to set us free from the hands of our enemies,
free to worship Him without fear,
holy and righteous in His sight all the days of our life.
You, my child, shall be called the prophet of the Most High,
L
for you will go before the Lord to prepare His way,
to give His people knowledge of their salvation
by the forgiveness of their sin.
In the tender compassion of our God,
the dawn from on high shall break upon us
to shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death
and to guide our feet into the way of peace.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son
C

as it was in the and to the Holy Spirit;

beginning, is now,
and will be forever. Amen.
