 At the Close of Day

Psalm 134

Behold now, bless the, all you servants of the , *
 * you that stand by night in the house of the.

Lift up your hands in the holy place and bless the ; *
 * the who made heaven and earth bless you out of Zion.

A Reading

Lord, you are in the midst of us and we are called by your Name:  Do not forsake us, O Lord our God.

Lord, you now have set your servant free *
 * to go in peace as you have promised;

For these eyes of mine have seen the Savior, *
 * whom you have prepared for all the world to see:

A Light to enlighten the nations, *
 * and the glory of your people Israel.

The Lord’s Prayer

The Collect

Visit this place, O Lord, and drive far from it all snares of the enemy; let your holy angels dwell with us to preserve us in  peace; and let your blessing be upon us always; through Jesus  Christ our Lord. Amen.

The almighty and merciful Lord, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, bless us and keep us. Amen.
