Deacon. Let us complete our evening supplication to the Lord.

Choir. Lord, have mercy upon us.

I

God of all Grace, Thy mercy send;

Let Thy protecting arm defend;

Save us, and keep us to the end.

Have mercy, Lord.

II

And through the coming hours of night,

Fill us, we pray, with holy light;

Keep us all sinless in Thy sight.

Grant this, O Lord.

III

May some bright messenger abide

For ever by Thy servants' side,

A faithful guardian and guide.

Grant this, O Lord.

IV

From every sin in mercy free,

Let heart and conscience stainless be,

That we may live henceforth for Thee.

Grant this, O Lord.

V

We would not be by care opprest,

But in Thy love and wisdom rest; --

Give what Thou seest to be best.

Grant this, O Lord.

VI

While we of every sin repent,

Let our remaining years be spent

In holiness and sweet content.

Grant this, O Lord.

VII

And when the end of life is near,

May we, unshamed and void of fear,

Wait for the Judgment to appear.

Grant this, O Lord.
