Midnight Praises

Arise O Children of the Light. Let us praise the Lord of Hosts. That He may grant us the salvation of our souls. Whenever we stand before you in the flesh. Cast away from our minds the slumber of sleep. Grant us sobriety O Lord that we may know how to stand before you at times of prayer. And ascribe unto you the befitting glorification and win the forgiveness of our many sins. Glory be to You O Lover of mankind. Behold bless the Lord, all you servants of the Lord. Glory be to You O Lover of mankind. You who stand in the house of the Lord in the courts of the house of our God. Glory be to You O Lover of mankind. By night lift up your hands all you saints and bless the Lord. Glory be to You O Lover of mankind. The Lord bless you from Zion who made heaven and earth. Glory be to You O Lover of mankind. Let my cry come before you O Lord, give me understanding according to your word. Glory be to You O Lover of mankind. Let my supplication come before you, deliver me according to your word. Glory be to You O Lover of mankind. My lips shall laud your praise, for you teach me your statutes. Glory be to You O Lover of mankind. My tongue shall speak of your words for all your commandments are righteousness. Glory be to You O Lover of mankind. Let your hand become my help for I have chosen your precepts. Glory be to You O Lover of mankind. I long for your salvation O Lord and your law is my delight. Glory be to You O Lover of mankind.
